circuit

Yes

Proceed to next step.

Connect it to the fuel manometer valve.
Make the 30# and 87# pins of fuel pump
relay short so as to operate the fuel pump,
and then verify that the fuel pressure is
maintained at about 350kPa.

Proceed to Step 13.

Yes

Proceed to Step 12.

Pull out the fuel distributing pipe together
with the fuel injector and disconnect the fuel
injector connectors on the wiring harness one
by one. Connect a 12V supply directly from
the battery to the fuel injector and verify that
the fuel injector is functioning.

Yes

Proceed to next step.

After washing and cleaning the fuel injector,
verify that it is capable of injecting fuel
again.

Replace the fuel

injector

G-64

Yes

Replace the fuel

Verify that the fuel is deteriorated or
contaminated by water.

Proceed to Step 18.

Yes

Proceed to next step.

Verify that the fuel pressure is lower than
350kPa.

Proceed to Step 17.

Yes

Proceed to next step.

Close the fuel manometer valve. Connect the
ignition switch again to re-operate the fuel
pump in order to verify that the fuel pressure
can be established.

Proceed to Step 16.

Yes

Replace fuel and

pressure regulator

Open the fuel manometer valve and clamp
the fuel return pipe with the fuel tube clamp
to stop the fuel return in order to verify that
the fuel pressure can be established quickly.

Repair or replace the

fuel injector or fuel

pipe

Yes

Repair or replace the

fuel inlet pipe

Verify that the fuel inlet pipe has any
leakage or blockage.

Replace the fuel pump

Yes

Repair or replace the

fuel return pipe

Verify that the fuel return pipe has any
leakage or bending.

Replace the fuel

pressure regulator

Yes

Proceed to next step.

Connect an adapter between ECU and the
wiring harness. Then verify that there is any
voltage at the ECU’s pin No.44, 45, 63, 12
and 13, and to see whether the positive
power supply wires connected to the above
ECU’s pins and the ground wires connected
to the pin No. 3, 51, 53, 61 and 80 are
normal.

Repair or replace the

wiring harness.

Yes Repair

Verify that the parts of air intake system
have any air leakage.

Proceed to next step.

Yes

Repair or replace

Verify that the absolute pressure and
temperature sensor of air intake manifold has
any blockage.

Proceed to next step.

Yes

Proceed to next step.

Verify that the coolant temperature sensor is
normal.

Repair or replace

Yes

Fix the mechanical

malfunction

Verify that the unsuccessful startup is due to
mechanical reasons such as excessive
clearance between the piston and cylinder or
due to cylinder air leakage, etc.

Replace the ECU

G-65

3) Difficult start-up of hot engine

Item

No.

Follow-up

procedure

Yes

Fix the indicated

malfunction

Turn the ignition switch to “ON” position.
Inspect with the diagnostic tester to see
whether there is any malfunction
information record.

Proceed to next

step.

Yes

Proceed to next

step.

Connect the fuel manometer valve. Short
the 30# and 87# pins of the fuel pump relay
to operate the fuel pump in order to verify
that the fuel pressure is maintained at about
350kPa.

Proceed to Step 9.

Yes

Proceed to next

step.

Disconnect the connecting fuel pipe and
turn off the ignition switch. After 1 hour,
verify that the pressure of fuel system is
maintained between 250-300 kPa.

Repair the leakage

of fuel system

Yes

Replace the fuel

pressure regulator

Connect the connecting fuel pipe and block
the fuel return pipe with the fuel tube clamp
as well as close the fuel manometer valve.
Then turn off the ignition switch, after 1
hour, verify that the pressure of fuel system
is maintained between 250-300 kPa.
