Fuel Delivery and Air Induction: Testing and Inspection

2AZ-FXE FUEL: FUEL SYSTEM: ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

1. CHECK FUEL PUMP OPERATION AND FOR FUEL LEAKS
(a) Check fuel pump operation.
(1) Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
(2) Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the intelligent tester main switch on.

NOTICE: Do not start the engine.

(3) Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TEST / FUEL PUMP / SPD.
(b) Check the fuel pump operation.
(1) Check for pressure in the fuel inlet tube from the fuel line. Check that sound of fuel flowing in the fuel tank can be heard. If no sound can be heard, check the integration relay, fuel pump, ECM and wiring connector.
(c) Check for fuel leaks.
(1) Check that there are no fuel leaks from any part of the fuel system after performing maintenance. If there is a fuel leak, repair or replace the parts as necessary.
(d) Turn the power switch off.
(e) Disconnect the intelligent tester from the DLC3.
2. CHECK FUEL PRESSURE
(a) Check that the battery positive voltage is above 12 V.
(b) Discharge the fuel system pressure Technician Safety Information.
(c) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.





(d) Remove the No. 1 fuel pipe clamp from the fuel tube connector.
(e) Disconnect the fuel hose from the fuel main tube.

CAUTION:
- Always read the precautions Technician Safety Information before disconnecting the fuel tube connector (quick type).
- Fuel may be sprayed from the fuel pipe line as a result of retained pressure that remains in the line. Do not allow fuel to be sprayed in the engine compartment.





(f) Install SST (pressure gauge) and the fuel tube connector using SST as shown in the illustration.
SST: 09268-31011
09268-41500
90467-13001
95336-08070
SST: 09268-45014
09268-41200
09268-41220
09268-41250
(g) Wipe up any gasoline.
(h) Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
(i) Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TEST / FUEL PUMP / SPD.
(j) Measure the fuel pressure.
Fuel pressure:
304 to 343 kPa (3.1 to 3.5 kgf/cm2, 44.1 to 49.7 psi)
If the pressure is high, replace the fuel pressure regulator.
If the pressure is low, check the fuel hoses and connections, fuel pump, fuel filter and fuel pressure regulator.
(k) Disconnect the intelligent tester from the DLC3.
(l) Start the engine.
(m) Measure the fuel pressure at idle.
Fuel pressure:
304 to 343 kPa (3.1 to 3.5 kgf/cm2, 44.1 to 49.7 psi)
(n) Stop the engine.
(o) Check that the fuel pressure remains as specified for 5 minutes after the engine has stopped.
Fuel pressure:
147 kPa (1.5 kgf/cm2, 21 psi) or more
If the pressure is not as specified, check the fuel pump, pressure regulator and/or injectors.
(p) After checking the fuel pressure, disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and carefully remove the SST to prevent gasoline from splashing.
(q) Reconnect the fuel main tube (fuel tube connector).

CAUTION: Always read the precautions Technician Safety Information before connecting the fuel tube connector (quick type).

(r) Install the No. 1 fuel pipe clamp to the fuel tube connector.
(s) Check for fuel leaks (Step 1).
3. PERFORM INITIALIZATION
(a) Perform initialization procedure Repair Instruction - Initialization.

HINT: Some systems need initialization after reconnecting the cable to the negative battery terminal.
