WARNING:
Fuel line spills and leakage from the pressurized fuel system are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injury or death and damage. To prevent this, complete the following inspection with the engine stopped.
Fuel is very flammable liquid. If fuel spills or leaks from the pressurized fuel system, it will cause serious injury or death and facility breakage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the “Fuel Line Safety Procedure”, while referring to the “BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION”.
A person charged with static electricity could cause a fire or explosion, resulting in death or serious injury. Before performing work on the fuel system, discharge static electricity by touching the vehicle body.
CAUTION:
Disconnecting/connecting the quick release connector without cleaning it may possibly cause damage to the fuel pipe and quick release connector. Always clean the quick release connector joint area before disconnecting/connecting using cloth or soft brush, and make sure that it is free of foreign material.
1. Complete the “BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION”..
2. Remove the battery cover..
3. Disconnect the negative battery cable..
4. Disconnect the quick release connector..
5. Turn the lever of the SST
parallel to the hose as shown in the figure.
6. Insert the SST
quick release connector into the fuel pipe until a click is heard.
7. Verify that the quick release connector is firmly connected by pulling it by hand.
8. Start the fuel pump using the following procedure.
Connect the negative battery cable..
Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
Using the simulation function “FP”, start the fuel pump..
Remove the fuel pump relay.
CAUTION:
Short the specified terminals because shorting the wrong terminal of the relay and fuse block may cause malfunctions.
Using a jumper wire, short fuel pump relay terminals C and D in the relay and fuse block.
Connect the negative battery cable and operate the fuel pump..
9. Operate the fuel pump for 10 s
.
10. Measure the fuel line pressure.
If not within the specification, inspect the following:
Fuel pump unit
Fuel line for clogging or leakage
Fuel line clogging
405—485 kPa {4.13—4.94 kgf/cm2, 58.8—70.3 psi}
11. Stop the fuel pump using the following procedure.
Using the simulation function “FP”, stop the fuel pump..
Disconnect the negative battery cable to stop the fuel pump..
12. Measure the fuel hold pressure after 5 min
.
If not within the specification, inspect the following:
Fuel line leakage
230 kPa {2.35 kgf/cm2, 33.4 psi} or more
13. Complete the “BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION”..
14. Disconnect the SST
.
15. Connect the quick release connector..
16. Complete the “AFTER SERVICE PRECAUTION”..
Turbocharger Inspection [Mzr 2.3 Disi Turbo]
Compressor Wheel Inspection
1. Remove the turbocharger..
2. Visually inspect the compressor wheel from view A for the cracks, damage,
or bending on all the compressor wheel blades.
If there are any cracks or damage, replace the turbocharger..

Traction Control System (TCS)
The Traction Control System (TCS)
enhances traction and safety by controlling
engine torque and braking. When the TCS
detects driving wheel slippage, it lowers
engine torque and operates the brakes to
prevent loss of traction.
This means that on a slick surface, the
engine adjusts automatic ...
