Fuel System (Fuel Injection) 4. ECU System (1) Configuration of ECU System The ECU uses various sensors to precisely control the injected fuel amount and ignition timing. 1 Fuel Tank 2 Fuel Regulator 3 Vapor Separator 4 Fuel Feed Pump (FFP) 5 ECU 6 Ignition Coil...
1) Sensors Individual sensors detect the engine operating conditions and sends signals regarding the information to the ECU. Pulser Coil [Crank Position Sensor] Pulser coils function as crank position sensors. As the crank position in 120° and sends a crank position signal to the ECU.
Fuel System (Fuel Injection) Oil Pressure Switch The oil pressure switch is located on the port side of the engine block, protruding into the oil passage. The oil pressure switch sends an oil pressure low signal to the ECU. The ECU activates the low speed ESG and warning lamp based on this information.
4. Controls the engine low speed ESG function. 5. Controls the engine high speed ESG function. 6. Memorizes engine operation information. Monitoring and failure diagnosis can be carried out using a PC on which TOHATSU DIAGNOSTICS (software) is installed and diagnostics harness. (2) Control System The ECU (Electronic Control Unit) is installed in the cylinder block via a bracket.
Fuel System (Fuel Injection) (3) Fuel Injection Control The ECU calculates the intake air quantity based on the engine revolution speed and intake manifold pressure (intake vacuum pressure) to determine the fuel injection amount. During engine startup, warm-up, acceleration/deceleration, and idling, the ECU performs correction control based on information from the sensors.
2) Start Up Fuel Mapping When the engine is started (cranked), the amount of fuel injected by each cylinder is increased from the normal quantity to improve the starting performance. In addition, the block temperature and other information is obtained from the various sensors and corrected to the optimum condition.
Fuel System (Fuel Injection) (6) Warning Buzzer and Lamp (LED), and Control of Engine Revolution Speed Warning System When an abnormality occurs on the engine, warning buzzer sounds and warning lamp (LED) is lit or blinks. In such case, engine speed is controlled but engine is not stopped. 1) Location of Warning Buzzer and Lamp (LED) •...
5. Ignition System For ignition system, CD ignition system is adopted, and ECU's electronic ignition timing control system controls the timing to the most suitable state according to current operating conditions. As engine is started, electric current is generated in the exciter coil of alternator. Which is input to ECU's regulator to feed power needed for operations of ignition coil, fuel injector and fuel feed pump (FFP).
Fuel System (Fuel Injection) (2) Ignition Control The ECU's microcomputer is pre-programmed with optimal ignition timings according to the condition of the engine. The ECU obtains information about the engine operating status such as the revolution speed, throttle opening, manifold pressure (air intake vacuum pressure), cooling water temperature etc. based on the signals from the above- mentioned sensors to ignite the fuel at the optimal ignition timing.
(3) Fuel Feed System Fuel pump 4 (low pressure mechanical type) draws fuel from fuel tank, and feeds it to fuel feed pump 6 (FFP) located in the vapor separator 5 through fuel connector 2 and fuel filter 3. Highly pressurized fuel, fed into fuel rail 8 and fuel injector, and then, injected into intake manifold. Excessive fuel that is not used by fuel injector passes through fuel regulator 7, and circulated in the vapor separator 5 to keep fuel pressure constant.
Fuel System (Fuel Injection) 6. Components of Fuel Feed System 1) Fuel Pump [Low Pressure Mechanical Pump] The fuel pump is a diaphragm pump that is operated mechanically by the camshaft. a IN: Fuel from Filter/Tank b OUT: Fuel Outlet to Vapor Separator 2) Vapor Separator Vapor separator feeds only liquid fuel for internal fuel feed pump (FFP) 1 (electrical high pressure pump).
3) Fuel Regulator The fuel regulator located inside the vapor separator serves to keep the fuel pressure constant. The fuel regulator consists of a check valve to actuate the valve/seat, returning the excess fuel b (pressurized) to the vapor separator when the pressure exceeds a certain value. Excess fuel is returned to the vapor separator through an internal pipe below the fuel level to prevent it from bubbling.
Fuel System (Fuel Injection) 7. Outline of Fuel Injection System 1) Air Intake System The air intake system consists of components including the intake manifold 1 (air intake passage to cylinders that are linked to a common air chamber), throttle position sensor 2, throttle body/shutter 3, ISC (idle speed control) valve 4, and T-MAP (manifold pressure and temperature) sensor 5.
8. Inspection Items 1) Inspection of Fuel Supply System Check the fuel system piping for fuel leak, dirt, deterioration and damage, and replace or repair parts if necessary. 2) Inspection of Filter Check if there is any dirt in fuel filter 1, or if there is any fuel varnish, debris, deposits and contamination by foreign matter or water in the fuel filter cup 2, or if there are any cracks.

Fuel System (Fuel Injection) Cleaning Fuel Feed Pump (FFP) Filter Remove the fuel filter (suction side) 7 from the fuel feed pump (FFP) in the vapor separator and clean it. 4-32 4st 25/30 2022...
3) Inspection of Fuel Pump Remove the fuel hoses (2 pcs.) from the fuel pump. Connect the vacuum/pressure gauge to the inlet of the fuel pump. Close the fuel pump outlet with your finger and apply the specified pressure. Make sure there are no air leaks. Vacuum/Pressure Gauge: P/N.
Fuel System (Fuel Injection) 5) Measurement of Fuel Pressure Remove the cap 1. Connect the pressure gauge 2 as shown in the figure. WARNING • Before measurement, check that the pressure relief valve is fully closed. • Before connecting the pressure gauge, c o v e r t h e c o n n e c t i o n b e t w e e n t h e pressure gauge and valve with a clean and dry cloth to prevent fuel from leaking.
6) Draining Fuel Remove the cap 1. Connect the pressure gauge assembly 2 as shown in the figure, place a vessel below the pressure relief hose, and open the pressure relief valve 3 to release the fuel pressure. WARNING Be sure to reduce the fuel pressure in the high pressure fuel passage before servicing the fuel passage and/or vapor separator.
Fuel System (Fuel Injection) 7) Disassembly of Vapor Separator WARNING Be sure to reduce the fuel pressure in the high pressure fuel passage before servicing the fuel passage and/or vapor separator. Performing the service without releasing the pressure causes compressed fuel to be injected, possibly causing a hazard.
8) Inspection of Vapor Separator Check the needle valve for bend and wear. Replace if necessary. Check the float for deformation. Replace if necessary. Check the filter for dirt and clogging. Clean if necessary. Reinstall the needle valve, float and float pin, and check that the parts moves smoothly.
Fuel System (Fuel Injection) 10) Inspection of ISC (Idle Speed Control) Use the diagnosis system to check operation of the ISC (Idle Speed Control) valve. The value may be significantly higher than the reference value when there is abnormality in the engine. ISC Duty Ratio: 10-30% (after warming-up, idle speed 850 min (rpm))
