MAINTENANCE
The maintenance of the engine and its related components is critical to the life of the engine and optimum performance during its useful life. All engines require a certain amount of maintenance. The suggested maintenance requirements are contained in this section. Industrial engines operate in various environments from extremely dusty environments, to hot and cold temperature environments and clean environments. The recommended schedule is a recommended guide line for the owner and servicing agency to follow, however certain environmental operating conditions may require more frequent inspection and maintenance. In addition the owner may have installed additional equipment to the equipment which may also increase the requirements for service on certain components. Therefore the owner and servicing agent should review the operating condition of the equipment and determine if more frequent inspections and maintenance cycles maybe required.
!
WARNING
When performing maintenance on the engine, shut off the engine and disconnect the battery negative cable to avoid injury or damage to the engine.
The engine installed in this equipment may use one or both accessory drive belt configurations. The drive belt may be incorporated to drive the water pump, alternator and addition pumps or devices. It is important to note, the drive belt is an integral part of the cooling and charging system and should be inspected at a minimum according to the maintenance schedule in this section and in extremely hot and dirty environments more often.
When inspecting the belts check for:
• Cracks,
• Chunking of the belt,
• Splits
• Material hanging loose from the belt
• Glazing, hardening
If any of these conditions exist the belt should be replaced with an OEM replacement belt.
V-BELT SYSTEMS
Check the belt tension by pressing down on the midway point of the longest stretch between two pulleys. The belt should not depress beyond 13mm (1/2 inch). If the depression is more than allowable adjust the tension. Do not over tighten the tension of the belt. Over tightening may cause overload on the bearings and pulleys of the drive belt components.

configuration.
COOLING SYSTEM
!
WARNING
Alcohol or Methanol base antifreeze or plain water are not recommended for use in the cooling system at anytime.
It is important to remember that the cooling system of this engine be maintained properly to insure the longevity of the engine. Maintenance of the cooling system is critical to not only the engine but the fuel system as well. Because the LPG vaporizer is connected into the cooling system low coolant levels and restricted or plugged radiator cores can impact the performance of the fuel system. Therefore proper maintenance of the cooling system should include removing dust, dirt and debris from the radiator core on regular intervals. To properly maintain the cooling system follow the recommend maintenance schedule in this section.
Cooling system inspections should be performed as prescribed when inspecting the cooling system check for the following:
• Plugged or restricted radiator core clean with compressed air, blow dust and debris from the core and the fan shroud
• Check the radiator cap to insure proper sealing if damage replace
• Check for coolant leaks at the radiator tank seams and inlet joints repair or replace as necessary
• Check for leaks at the radiator hose connections, tighten hose clamps if necessary
• Check Radiator hoses for swelling, separation, cracks deterioration in the hoses, or hardening, if any of these conditions exist the hose should be replaced with the OEM replacement parts
• Check coolant level if low add with 50/50 mixture,
Do not add plain water
• Replace coolant per the recommended schedule at the end of this section
CHECKING THE COOLANT LEVEL
1. Check coolant level in coolant recovery tank. Add
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine specified coolant as required.
!
WARNING
Do not remove the cooling system pressure cap when the engine is hot.
Allow the engine to cool and then remove the cap slowly allowing pressure to vent. Hot coolant under pressure may discharge violently
IMPORTANT:
The engine manufacturer and the fuel system supplier do not recommend the use of “stop leak” additives to repair leaks in the cooling system. If leaks are present the radiator should be removed and repaired.
If the radiator requires repair insure that the radiator core repairs did not result in a significant reduction in the cooling capacity of the radiator.
The engine manufacturer recommends the cooling system be filled with a 50/50 mixture of ethelyene glychol anitfreeze and water.
This GM industrial engine can utilize any type of permanent antifreeze or any brand antifreeze solution that meets GM Specification 1825M or 1899M which will not damage aluminum parts.

ENGINE CRANKCASE OIL
OIL RECOMMENDATION
Prior to changing the oil, select oil based on the prevailing daytime temperature in the area in which the equipment will be operated. The chart in figure 1 is a guide to selecting the proper crankcase oil.
IMPORTANT: Oils containing “solid” additives, nondetergent oils, or low quality oils are not recommended by the engine manufacturer.
Figure 1 Engine Oil Viscosity Recommendation
USE OF SUPPLEMENTAL ADDITIVES
Use of the oils recommended by the engine manufacturer already contains a balanced additive treatment. The uses of supplemental additives which are added to the engine oil by the customer are not necessary and may be harmful.
The engine manufacturer, fuels system suppliers and engine distributors do not review, approve or recommend such
OB-4–Maintenance products.
SYNTHETIC OILS
Synthetic oils have been available for use in industrial engines for a relatively long period of time. Synthetic oils may offer advantages in cold temperature pumpability and high temperature oxidations resistance. However, synthetic oils have not proven to provide operational or economic benefits over conventional petroleum-based oils in industrial engines.
Their use does not permit the extension of oil change intervals.
CHECKING/FILLING ENGINE OIL LEVEL
IMPORTANT; Care must be taken when checking engine oil level. Oil level must be maintained between the “ADD” mark and the “FULL” mark on the dipstick. To ensure that you are not getting a false reading, make sure the following steps are taken before checking the oil level.
1. Stop engine if in use
2. Allow sufficient time (approximately 5 minutes) for the oil to drain back into the oil pan
3. Remove the dipstick. Wipe with a clean cloth or paper towel and reinstall. Push the dipstick all the way into the dipstick tube.
4. Remove the dipstick and note the oil level.
5. Oil level must be between the “FULL” and “ADD” marks.
Figure 2 Engine Oil Dip stick (Typical)
6. If the oil level is below the “ADD” mark, proceed to Step
7 and 8, and reinstall the dipstick into the dipstick tube.
7. Remove the oil filler cap from the valve rocker arm cover
8. Add the required amount of oil to bring the level up to but not over the “FULL” mark on the dipstick
9. Reinstall the oil filler cap to the valve rocker arm cover and wipe any excess oil clean.\
CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL
IMPORTANT: When changing the oil, always change the
oil filter.
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
!
CAUTION
Overfilled crankcase (oil level being to high) can cause an oil leak, a flucuation or drop in the oil pressure and rocker arm “clatter” on engines. The overfill condition results in the engine crankshaft splashing and agitating the oil, causing it to foam (become aereated). The aereated oil causes the hydraulic lifters to “bleed down”. This results in rocker arm clatter and loss of engine performance due to valves not opening properly.
1. Start the engine and run until it reaches normal operating temperature.
IMPORTANT: Change oil when engine is warm from operation as it flows more freely, carrying away more impurities.
2. Stop engine.
IMPORTANT: Engine oil will be hot. Use protective gloves to prevent burns. Engine oil contains chemicals which may be harmful to your health avoid skin contact.
3. Remove drain plug and allow the oil to drain.
4. Remove and discard oil filter and it sealing ring.
5. Coat sealing ring on the new filter with clean engine oil, wipe the sealing surface on the filter mounting surface to remove any dust, dirt or debris. Tighten filter securely
(follow filter manufacturers instructions). Do not overtighten.
6. Check sealing ring on drain plug for any damage, replace if necessary, wipe plug with clean rag, wipe pan sealing surface with clean rag and re-install plug into the pan.
Tighten to specification.
7. Fill crankcase with oil.
8. Start engine and check for oil leaks.
9. Dispose of oil and filter in a safe manner.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION OF
THE FUEL SYSTEMS
PROPANE FUEL SYSTEM
The primary components of the propane fuel system are the fuel storage tank, low pressure regulator (LPR), fuel mixer module with throttle control device, electric fuel lock-off solenoid, engine control module (ECM) fuel trim valve (FTV) pressure trim valve (PTV) and Three Way Catalytic (TWC) converter. The system operates at pressures which range from
355.60 mm (14.0 inches) of water column up to 21.5 BAR (312 psi). Figure 1 Typical Fuel System Schematic
Fuel System Operation 1A1-3
SERVICE LINE
!
CAUTION
The bulkhead assembly should never be removed and a service line run throught the sheet metal.
Propane flows from the fuel tank to the electric lock via the service line. The service line is connected to the tank utilizing a quick coupler. The other end of the service line is connected to a “bulkhead connector” mounted on the equipment sheet metal. This bulkhead connector allows for a safe means of passing through the equipments engine compartment sheet metal and into the engine compartment. If a bulkhead connector is used a pressure relief device is mounted in the service line or the connector itself to prevent over pressurization of the service line. The service line is made of high pressure hose with special material or possibly tubing which is friendly to the LPG fuel and must always be replaced with an OEM supplied part.
LPG FUEL TANK
Propane is stored in the fuel tank as a liquid. The approximate pressure of the fuel in the tank is 16.5 bar (240 psi) when the tank is full at an ambient temperature of 27° C
(81°F). The boiling point, (temperature at which the liquid fuel becomes vapor) is approximately -40° C (-40° F). When the fuel changes from liquid to vapor the fuel expands and creates pressure inside the tank. When the tank service valve is opened the pressure inside the tank forces the liquid fuel out though the pick up tube located near the bottom of the fuel cylinder. Because the Propane is stored under pressure the tank is equipped with a safety valves which are normally set at 25.8 bar (375 psi) to prevent tank rupture due to overpressurization of the cylinder. The service valve is mounted in the end of the cylinder controls the flow of fuel from the tank. By turning the handle to its “open” position, fuel flows out of the tank and into the service line. The service valve is also equipped with a safety feature called an “excess flow check valve”. This feature reduces the flow from the service valve in the event of a rupture of the fuel line or any down stream component.

FUEL FILTER
Propane fuel like all other motor fuels is subject to contamination from outside sources. Refueling of the equipments tank and removal of the tank from the equipment can inadvertently introduce dirt and other foreign matter into the fuel system. It is therefore necessary to filter the fuel prior to entering the fuel system components down stream of the tank.
The fuel filter is integrated into the electric lock off assembly. Maintenance of the filter is critical to proper operation of the fuel system and should be replaced as defined in the
Recommended Maintenance Schedule. In severe operating condition more frequent replacement of the filter may be necessary.
ELECTRIC LOCK OFF
The Electric Lock Off device is an integrated assembly. The electric lock assembly is a 12 volt normally closed valve. The solenoid is mounted to the valve body. When energized the solenoid opens the valve and allows the Propane fuel to flow through the device. The valve opens during cranking and run cycles of the engine. The lock off supply voltage is controlled by the engine control module (ECM).

LOW PRESSURE REGUALTOR (LPR)

The LPR is an emission control device. Components inside the regulator are specifically calibrated to meet the engine emissions requirements and should never be disassembled or rebuilt. If the LPR fails to operate, replace with an OEM replacement part.
volt normally closed solenoid. The function of this solenoid is to regulate a specific amount of venture vacuum to the atmospheric side of the secondary diaphragm. By introducing vacuum to the top side of the secondary diaphragm during regulator operation the amount of fuel being delivered to the mixer can be “trimmed” or reduced to allow for correction to the air fuel ratio for closed loop fuel control. The solenoid receives a reference signal from the ECM which causes the solenoid to be pulsed fast or slow depending on the amount of fuel to be trimmed.
The LPR is a combination vaporizer, pressure regulating device. The LPR is a negative pressure two stage regulator that is normally closed when the engine is not running. When the engine is cranking or running a partial vacuum is created in the fuel line which connects the regulator to the mixer. This partial vacuum opens the regulator permitting fuel to flow to the mixer.
Propane fuel enters the primary port of the LPR and passes through the primary jet and into the primary/exchanger chamber. As the propane passes through the heat exchanger the fuel expands and creates pressure inside the chamber. The pressure rises as the fuel expands when the pressure rises above 10.34 kpa (1.5 psi), sufficient pressure is exerted on the primary diaphragm to cause the diaphragm plate to pivot and press against the primary valve pin thus closing off the flow of fuel. This action causes the flow of fuel into the regulator to be regulated. When the engine is cranking, sufficient vacuum will be introduce into the secondary chamber from the mixer drawing the secondary diaphragm down onto the spring loaded lever and opening the secondary valve allowing vaporized fuel to pass to the mixer. Increased vacuum in the secondary chamber increases the downward action on the secondary lever causing it to open wider allowing more fuel to flow to the mixer.
The regulator utilized on this emission certified engine is equipped with a unique Pressure Trim Valve (PTV) which is directly mounted to the regulator. This solenoid is a 12
Figure 4 Low pressure regulator
AIR FUEL MIXER
The air valve mixer is an air-fuel metering device and is completely self-contained. The mixer is an air valve design, utilizing a relatively constant pressure drop to draw fuel into the mixer from cranking to full load. The mixer is mounted in the air stream ahead of the throttle control device.
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
When the engine begins to crank it draws in air with the air valve covering the inlet, negative pressure begins to build.
This negative pressure signal is communicated to the top of the air valve chamber through 4 vacuum ports in the air valve assembly. A pressure/force imbalance begins to build across the air valve diaphragm between the air valve vacuum chamber and the atmospheric pressure below the diaphragm. The air valve vacuum spring is calibrated to generate from 101.6 mm (4.0 inches) of water column at start to as high as 355.60 mm (14.0 inches) of water column at full throttle. The vacuum being created is referred to as Air Valve Vacuum (AVV).
As the air valve vacuum reaches 101.6mm (4.0 inches) of water column, the air valve begins to lift against the air valve spring. The amount of AVV generated is a direct result of the throttle position. At low engine speed the air valve vacuum is low and the air valve position is low thus creating a small venturi for the fuel to flow. As the engine speed increase the
AVV increases and the air valve is lifted higher thus creating a much larger venturi. This air valve vacuum is communicated from the mixer venture to the LPR secondary chamber via the low pressure fuel supply hose. As the AVV increases in the secondary chamber the secondary diaphragm is drawn further down forcing the secondary valve lever to open wider.
!
CAUTION
The air/fuel mixer is an emission control device. Components inside the mixer are specifically calibrated to meet the engines emissions requirements and should never be disassembled or rebuilt. If the mixer fails to operate replace with an OEM replacement part.
The mixer is equipped with a low speed mixture adjustment which is retained in a tamper proof housing. The mixer has been preset at the factory and should not require any adjustment. In the event that the idle adjustment should need to be adjusted refer to the Fuel System Repair section of this manual.

THROTTLE CONTROL DEVICE
Drive By Wire
Engine speed control is maintained by the amount of pressure applied to the foot pedal located in the engine compartment.
In a Drive By Wire (DBW) application there is no direct connection between the operator pedal and the throttle shaft.
Speed and load control are determined by the ECM. Defaults programmed into the ECM software and throttle position sensors allow the ECM to maintain safe operating control over the engine.
In a drive by wire application the Electronic Throttle Control device or “throttle body assembly” is connected to the intake manifold of the engine. The electronic throttle control device utilizes an electric motor connected to the throttle shaft. In addition a Foot Pedal Position sensor (FPP) located in the operator’s compartment. When the engine is running electrical signals are sent from the foot pedal position sensor to the engine ECM when the operator depresses or release the foot pedal. The ECM then sends an electrical signal to the motor on the electronic throttle control to increase or decrease the angle of the throttle blade thus increasing or decreasing the air flow to the engine.
The electronic throttle control device also incorporates two internal Throttle Position Sensors (TPS) which provide output signals to the ECM as to the location of the throttle shaft and blade. The TPS information is used by the ECM to correct for speed and load control as well as emission control.
Also mounted on Electronic throttle body assembly is the
Fuel Trim Valve (FTV). The FTV is a 12 volt normally closed solenoid valve. During closed loop operation the ECM may send a reference signal to the FTV to open or close to allow more or less fuel to be introduced below the throttle blade to correct the air fuel mixture for proper emission control.

THREE WAY CATALYTIC MUFFLER
The emission certified engine has been designed and calibrated to meet the emission standards in effect for 2004. To help meet the emission requirements the vehicle has been equipped with a Three Way Catalytic (TWC) muffler. The catalyst muffler is a three way catalyst, sound damping and spark arresting unit. Besides controlling the noise created from the combustion process, and preventing sparks from escaping from the exhaust system the most important function is treating the exhaust gases which are created from the combustion process. The three-way catalyst consists of a honeycomb coated with a mixture of platinum, palladium, and rhodium.
The hot gases flow through the catalyst sections where an oxidation and reduction reactions take place. These chemical reactions reduce the amount of CO, HC and NOX in the engines exhaust. The Exhaust gas then flows through the outlet.
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine Fuel System Operation 1A1-7
The controller also performs diagnostic functions on the fuel system and notifies the operator of malfunctions by turning on a Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) mounted in the dash.
Malfunctions in the system are identified by a Diagnostic
Code number. In addition to notifying the operator of the malfunction in the system the controller also stores the information about the malfunction in its memory. A technician can than utilize a computerized diagnostic tool to retrieve the stored diagnostic code and by using the diagnostic charts in this manual determine the cause of the malfunction. In the event a technician does not have the computerized diagnostic tool the MIL light can be used to identify the diagnostic code.
By following specific steps the technician can activate the

ENGINE CONTROL MODULE
To obtain maximum effect from the catalyst and accurate control of the air fuel ratio the emission certified engine is equipped with an onboard computer or Engine Control
Module (ECM). The ECM is a 32 bit controller which receives in-put data from sensors fitted to the engine and fuel system and then out-puts various signals to control engine operation.
One specific function of the controller is to maintain “closed loop fuel control”. Closed loop fuel control is accomplished when the exhaust gas oxygen sensor (HEGO) mounted in the exhaust system sends a voltage signal to the controller. The controller then calculates any correction that may need to be made to the air fuel ratio. The controller then out-puts signals to PTV or the FTV or both mounted in the fuel system to change the amount of fuel being delivered from the regulator or mixer or to the engine.
The Heated Exhaust Gas Oxygen Sensor (HEGO) is mounted in the exhaust system downstream of the engine. The HEGO is used to measure the amount of oxygen present in the exhaust stream and communicate that to the ECM via an electrical signal. The amount of oxygen present in the exhaust

OEM replacement could cause damage to the fuel system and or damage to the fuel tank.
The Gasoline is stored as a liquid in the fuel tank and in drawn into the fuel system by a 12 volt electric fuel pump.
Depending on the vehicle application the fuel pump may be mounted in the fuel tank or as a stand alone component. In either case the fuel pump will receive a signal from the ECM at Key On to prime the fuel system for approximately 2 seconds prior to start. Priming of the fuel system provides for a quicker start, when the engine begins to crank.
Figure 2 Gasoline Fuel Rail Assembly with injectors
FUEL FILTER
After the fuel is drawn into the fuel pump the fuel then flows through the gasoline fuel filter. The fuel filter will trap small particles as the fuel passes through the filter to remove debris and prevent injectors from becoming damaged. Maintenance of the fuel filter is required as indicated in the Recommended
Maintenance Schedule. A more frequent replacement of the
FUEL INJECTOR
The fuel supply is maintained on the top of the injector by the fuel pressure regulator. The injector is fed a “pulse” signal through the wire harness which causes the injector to open. During regular operating conditions the ECM controls the opening and duration of opening of the injector. During lower RPM operation the injector signals or “pulses” are less frequent then when the engine is operating at higher RPMs.
The certified engine has been calibrated to deliver the precise amount of fuel for optimum performance and emission control.

LPG FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
This procedure is intended to diagnose a vehicle operating on
LPG. If the vehicle will not continue to run on LPG, refer to
Hard Start for preliminary checks. Before proceeding with this procedure, verify that the vehicle has a sufficient quantity of fuel and that liquid fuel is being delivered to the LPR.
Also, ensure that the manual shut off valve on the LPG tank is fully opened and that the excess flow valve has not been activated.
Tools Required:
• 7/16 Open end wrench (for test port plugs)
• Straight Blade screw driver
• DVOM (GM J 39200, Fluke 88 or equivalent).
Duty Cycle Monitoring Tool
• IMPCO Fuel System Analyzer (FSA), or DVOM
(GM J 39200, Fluke 88 or equivalent).
Diagnostic Scan Tool
• IMPCO hand held PDA or equivalent.
Pressure Gauges
• Water Column Gauge / Manometer (GM 7333-6 or equivalent).
• 0-10 PSI Gauge
Fuel System Description
The Engine Control Module (ECM) receives information from various engine sensors in order to control the operation of the fuel control solenoid valves (FTV) and the low-pressure lock-off (LPL) solenoid. The LPL solenoids prevent fuel flow unless the engine is cranking or running. LPG is stored in the tank and delivered under pressure to the system as a liquid. During key on, the LPL receives a two (2) second prime pulse from the ECU which allows LPG to flow from the tank through fuel filter and fuel lines to the low pressure regulator
(LPR) at pressures up to 21.5 BAR (312 psi).
In the (LPR) the fuel is vaporized and the pressure reduced in two stages. The first stage reduces the pressure to approximately 20.68 kilopascals (3.0 psi). The second stage reduces the pressure to approximately negative 38.1 mm (1.5”) of water column.
The fuel is then drawn from the secondary chamber of the
LPR by the vacuum generated by air flowing through the mixer. This vacuum signal is also used to generate lift for the mixer air valve. This vacuum signal is most commonly referred to as air valve vacuum. In the mixer, the fuel mixes with the air entering the engine. This air/fuel mixture is then drawn into the engine for combustion.
Test Description
The numbers below refer to step numbers on the diagnostic table.
5. This step will determine if the PTV and FTV and fuel supply system are functioning properly. The vacuum on the secondary test port will be approximately –1.0 “ to
–2.0” w.c.
6. This step checks the base mechanical LPR output pressure by disabling all fuel control devices.
9. This step checks for proper air valve operation.
19. This determines if fuel is available from the fuel tank supply system.

This procedure is intended to diagnose a vehicle operating on

Tools Required:
• J 34730-1 or equivalent
• J 37287 or equivalent
Diagnostic Scan Tool
• IMPCO Fuel System diagnostic tool.
Test Description
The numbers below refer to step numbers on the diagnostic table.
FUEL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Engine Control Module (ECM) receives information from various engine sensors in order to control the operation of the fuel injectors. The electric fuel pump, prevents fuel flow unless the engine is cranking or running. During key on, electric fuel pump receives a two (2) second prime pulse from the ECM which allows Gasoline to flow from the tank through fuel filter and fuel lines to the fuel rails where the pressure is regulated. With Ignition “ON” and fuel pump running pressure should be 284-325 kPa (41-47 psi).
When the engine is idling, manifold pressure is low (high vacuum) and is applied to the pressure regulator diaphragm.
Vacuum will offset the spring pressure and result in very low fuel pressure. Fuel pressures at idle will vary somewhat depending on barometric pressure but, should be less then pump pressure.
Unused fuel is returned to the fuel tank by a separate return fuel line
The fuel pump pressure test port is located on the fuel rail
4. Connect fuel pressure gage as shown in illustration.
Wrap a shop towel around the fuel connection to absorb any small amount of fuel leakage that may occur when installing the gage. With ignition “ON” and the fuel pump running pressure should be 284-325 kPa (41-47 psi). This pressure is controlled by spring pressure within the regulator assembly.
6. When the engine is idling, manifold pressure is low
(High Vacuum) and is applied to the pressure regulator diaphragm. Vacuum will offset spring pressure and result in a lower pressure. Fuel pressure at idle will vary somewhat depending on barometric pressure but, should be less then the pressure noted in step 4.
11. Fuel pressure that drops off during acceleration or cruise may cause a lean condition and result in a loss of power, surging or misfire. This condition can be diagnosed using the Diagnostic Tool. If the fuel in the system is very lean the Heated Exhaust Gas Oxygen
(HEGO) will stop toggling and output voltage will drop below 300 mV. Also injector pulse will increase.
14. Fuel pressure below 284 kPa (41 psi) may cause lean condition and may set a DTC. Driveablity conditions can include hard starting cold, hesitation, and lack of power or misfire.
15. Restricting the fuel return pipe cause the fuel pressure to build above the regulated pressure. With battery voltage applied to the pump, pressure should rise above
325 kPa (47 psi) as the valve in the return pipe is partially closed.
NOTICE: Do not allow the pressure to exceed
414 kPa (60 psi) as damage to the regulator may result.
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
17. Fuel pressure above 325 kPa (47 psi) may cause a rich condition and set a DTC. Driveability may include hard starting, followed by black smoke and a strong sulphur smell in the exhaust.
GASOLINE Fuel System Diagnostics 1B2-3
26. A leaking injector can best be determined by checking for a fouled or saturated spark plug(s). If a leaking injector can not be determined by a fouled or saturated plug the following procedure should be used.
18. This test is to determine if the high fuel pressure is due to a restricted fuel return pipe or a faulty fuel pressure regulator.
21. The pressure regulator may be fitted with a screen which is designed to trap contaminants introduced during engine assembly. If dirty it can be removed with a small pick and discarded without potential harm to the regulator.
23. A system that does not hold pressure is caused by one of the following.
o Leaking fuel pump check ball
o Leaking fuel feed hose
o Leaking valve/seat within the pressure regulator
o Leaking injector
• Remove the fuel rail but leave the lines connected
• Lift the fuel rail out just enough to leave injector nozzle’s in the ports.
!
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury that may result form fuel spray on the engine, make sure fuel rails is positioned over injector port and injector retaining clips are intact.
•
Pressurize the fuel system and observe injector nozzles.

1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
Important Preliminary Checks
Action
Before using this section, you should have performed On Board Diagnostic
Check and determined that:
1. The Control Module and MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) are operating correctly.
2. There are no Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) stored, or a DTC exists but without a MIL.
Several of the following symptom procedures call for a careful visual and physical check. The visual and physical checks are very important. The checks can lead to correcting a problem without further checks that may save valuable time.
1. Verify the customer complaint.
2. Locate the correct symptom table.
3. Check the items indicated under that symptom.
4. Operate the vehicle under the conditions the symptom occurs. Verify
HEGO switching between lean and rich.
IMPORTANT!
Normal HEGO switching indicates the LPG fuel system is in closed loop and operating correctly at that time.
5. If a scan tool is available, take a snapshot under the condition that the symptom occurs. Go to Engine Scan Tool Data List to verify normal sensor values and parameters.
• Check all ECM system fuses and circuit breakers.
• Check the ECM ground for being clean, tight and in its proper location.
• Check the vacuum hoses for splits, kinks and proper connections.
• Check thoroughly for any type of leak or restriction.
• Check for air leaks at all the mounting areas of the intake manifold sealing surfaces.
• Check for proper installation of the mixer module assembly.
• Check for air leaks at the mixer assembly.
• Check the ignition wires for the following conditions:
− Cracking
− Hardness
− Proper routing
− Carbon tracking
• Check the wiring for the following items:
− Proper connections, pinches or cuts.
• The following symptom tables contain groups of possible causes for each symptom. The order of these procedures is not important. If the scan tool readings do not indicate the problems, then proceed in a logical order, easiest to check or most likely to cause first.

Intermittent
Checks Action
DEFINITION: The problem may or may not turn ON the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) or store a Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC).
Preliminary Checks • Refer to Important Preliminary Checks.
Faulty Electrical Connections or
Wiring
• Do not use the DTC tables. If a fault is an intermittent, the use of the DTC tables may result in the replacement of good parts.
• Faulty electrical connections or wiring can cause most intermittent problems.
• Check the suspected circuit for the following conditions:
−
Faulty fuse or circuit breaker
Operational Test
Intermittent Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL)
Loss of DTC Memory
− Connectors poorly mated
− Terminals not fully seated in the connector (backed out)
− Terminals not properly formed or damaged
− Terminal to wires poorly connected
− Terminal tension insufficient.
• Carefully remove all the connector terminals in the problem circuit in order to ensure the proper contact tension. If necessary, replace all the connector terminals in the problem circuit in order to ensure the proper contact tension.
• Checking for poor terminal to wire connections requires removing the terminal from the connector body.
If a visual and physical check does not locate the cause of the problem, drive the vehicle with a scan tool. When the problem occurs, an abnormal voltage or scan reading indicates the problem may be in that circuit.
The following components can cause intermittent MIL and no DTC(s):
• A defective relay, Control Module driven solenoid, or a switch that can cause electrical system interference. Normally, the problem will occur when the faulty component is operating.
• The improper installation of electrical devices, such as lights, 2-way radios, electric motors, etc.
• The ignition secondary voltage shorted to a ground.
• The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) circuit or the Diagnostic Test Terminal intermittently shorted to ground.
• The Control Module grounds.
To check for the loss of the DTC Memory:
1. Disconnect the TMAP sensor.
2. Idle the engine until the Malfunction Indicator Lamp illuminates.
The ECU should store a TMAP DTC. The TMAP DTC should remain in the memory when the ignition is turned OFF. If the TMAP DTC does not store and remain, the ECM is faulty.

Restricted Exhaust System Diagnosis
System Diagnostics 1B4-29
Check at Heated Exhaust Gas Oxygen
Sensor (HEGO)
Exhaust System Description
The emission certified engine has been designed and calibrated to meet the emission standards in effect for 2004. To help meet the emission requirements the vehicle has been equipped with a Three Way
Catalytic (TWC) muffler. The catalyst muffler is a three way catalyst, sound damping and spark arresting unit. Besides controlling the noise created from the combustion process, and preventing sparks from escaping from the exhaust system the most important function is treating the exhaust gases which are created from the combustion process.
The three-way catalyst consists of a honeycomb coated with a mixture of platinum, palladium, and rhodium. The hot gases flow through the catalyst sections where an oxidation and reduction reactions take place. These chemical reactions reduce the amount of CO, HC and
NOX in the engines exhaust. The Exhaust gas then flows through the outlet.
During normal operation the exhaust system could become damaged. Damage which reduces the flow of the exhaust gas will create increased back pressure in the engine. Reduction in exhaust flow can result from crushed muffler outlets or melted catalyst brick inside the converter.
It may be necessary to measure the back pressure in the exhaust system. To determine if the back pressure in the engine is correct use the following procedure.
Diagnostic Aids
Tools Required:
• J 35314-A Exhaust Back Pressure Gage
1. Carefully remove the HEGO.
2. Install exhaust backpressure test (J35314-a) in place of the HEGO.
3. With the engine idling at normal operating temperature, observe the exhaust system back pressure reading on te gage. Reading should not exceed 8.6 kPa (1.25 psi).
4. Increase engine speed to 2000 RPM and observe gage. Reading should not exceed 20.7 kPa (3 psi).
5. If the back pressure at either speed exceeds specification, a restricted exhaust system is indicated.
6. Inspect the entire exhaust system for a collapsed pipe, heat distress or possible internal muffler failure.
7. If there are no obvious reasons for the excessive back pressure, the catalytic converter is suspected to be restricted and should be replaced using current recommended procedures.
Diagnostic Scan Tool
• IMPCO Fuel System diagnostic tool.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE WIRE HARNESS
REPAIR
The ECM/PCM harness electrically connects the ECM/
PCM to the various solenoids, electrically and sensors in vehicle engine and passenger compartment.
Wire harnesses should be replaced with proper part number harnesses. When signal wires are spliced, into a harness, use wire with high temperature insulation only.
With the low current and voltage levels found in the system, it is important that the best possible bond at all wire splices be made by soldering the splices, as shown in Figure 3-20.
Molded on connectors require complete replacement of the connector. This means splicing a new connector assembly into the harness.
Refer to Figure 1 for wiring diagrams.
CONNECTORS AND TERMINALS
Use care when probing a connector or replacing terminals in them. It is possible to short between opposite terminals. If this happens to the wrong terminal pair, it is possible to damage certain components.
Always use jumper wires between connectors, for circuit checking. NEVER probe through
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine the Weather-Pack seals. Use tachometer adapter J
35812, or equivalent, which provides an easy hook up of the tach. lead. The connector test adapter kit J
35616, or equivalent, contains an assortment of flexible connectors, used to probe terminals during diagnosis.
Fuse remover and test tool BT 8616, or equivalent, is used for removing a fuse and to adapt fuse holder, with a meter, for diagnosis.
When diagnosing, open circuits are often difficult to locate by sight, because oxidation, or terminal misalignment are hidden by the connectors. Merely wiggling a connector on a sensor, or in the wiring harness, may correct the open circuit condition. This should always be considered, when an open circuit, or failed sensor is indicated. Intermittent problems may, also, be caused by oxidized or loose connections.
Before making a connector repair, be certain of the type of connector. Weather-Pack and Compact Three connectors look similar, but are serviced differently.
FIGURE 1 WIRE HARNESS REPAIR
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
Micro-Pack
Refer to Figure 2 and repair procedure for replacement of a :Micro-Pack terminal.
FIGURE 2 MICRO-PACK CONNECTOR
Engine Control System Electrical 1C2-3
If reusing the terminal, reshape the locking tang (2).
Weather-Pack
A Weather-Pack connector can be identified by a rubber seal, at the rear of the connector. This connector, which is used in the engine compartment, protects against moisture and dirt, which could create oxidation and deposits on the terminals. This protection is important, because of the very low voltage and current levels found in the electronic system.
Repair of a Weather-Pack terminal is shown in Figure
3-23. Use tool J M28742, or BT8234-A to remove the pin and sleeve
Metri-Pack
Some connectors use terminals called Metri-Pack Series
150. (Figure 3). ‘These may be used at the coolant sensor, as well as TBI units.
They are also called “Pull-To-Seat” terminals, because, to install a terminal on a wire, the wire is first inserted through the seal (5) and connector (4). The terminal is then crimped on the wire and the terminal pulled back into the connector to seat it in place.
To remove a terminal:
1. Slide the seal back on the wire.
2. Insert tool (3) BT-8518, or J 35689, or equivalent, as shown in insert “A” and “B,” to release the terminal locking tab (2).
3. Push the wire and terminal out through the connector.
FIGURE 2 METR-PACK SERIES 150 TERMINAL REMOVAL
1C2-4 Engine Control System Electrical terminals.
If removal is attempted with an ordinary pick, there is a good chance that the terminal will be bent, or deformed. Unlike standard blade type terminals, these terminals cannot be straightened once they are bent.
Make certain that the connectors are properly seated and all of the sealing rings in place, when connecting leads. The hinge type flap provides a backup, or secondary locking feature for the connector. They are used to improve the connector reliability by retaining the terminals, if the small terminal lock tangs are not positioned properly.
Weather-Pack connections cannot be replaced with standard connections. Instructions are provided with
Weather-Pack connector and terminal packages.

1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine Diagnostic Trouble Codes 1C4-3
DIAGNOSTICS OVERVIEW OF THE SPECTRUM FUEL SYSTEM
The Spectrum Fuel system has built-in diagnostics for trouble shooting. The system has a dash mounted Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL) for indication of system problems.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (MIL)
Most engine control system related problems that affect emissions or driveability of the vehicle will set a
(DTC) Diagnostic Trouble Code and illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp.
The MIL has the following functions:
1. It notifies the driver of a problem with the fuel system, ignition system, or emission control system so the driver can arrange for service as soon as possible.
2. It will display DTC’s that have been stored due to a system malfunction.
The lamp should come on when the key is in the ON position and the engine is not running. This feature verifies that the lamp is in proper working order. If the lamp does not come on with the vehicle key on/engine off, repair it as soon as possible. Once the engine is in start or run mode, the lamp should go off. If the lamp illuminates while the engine is in the start or run mode, there is a current Diagnostic Trouble Code.
Spectrum Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC)
Diagnostic Trouble Codes are set when the Spectrum ECM (Electronic Control Module) runs a diagnostic self-test and the test fails. When a DTC is set, the ECM will illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp on the instrument panel and save the code in memory. The ECM will continue to run the self-test unless the DTC is an oxygen sensor lean, oxygen sensor rich, or an internal ECM related DTC. If the system continues to fail the test, the lamp will stay illuminated and the DTC is current (ACTIVE). All DTC’s are stored as historical faults until they are cleared. All DTC’s except the ECM related DTC’s will automatically clear from memory if the DTC does not reset within 50 consecutive engine run cycles.
While a Diagnostic Trouble Code is current for a sensor, the ECM may assign a default “limp home” value and use that value in its control algorithms. All of the system diagnostic self-tests run continuously during normal vehicle operation.
The Diagnostic Trouble Codes can be read by using either the MIL lamp or a laptop computer. Refer to Using
a Laptop Computer to Diagnose the Spectrum System and Using a Diagnostic Jumper to Diagnose the ECI
System, located in this section. Diagnostic Trouble Codes can be cleared from memory with a laptop computer or by turning the ignition key to the OFF position and removing the system main power fuse (F3) for 15 seconds.
If more than one DTC is detected, always begin with the lowest number DTC and diagnose each problem to correction unless directed to do otherwise by the fault tree. The DTC’s are numbered in order of importance.
Having DTC 112 and DTC 122, both concerning the oxygen sensor, is possible. By repairing DTC 112 first, the problem causing the DTC 122 may also be corrected.
1C4–4 Diagnostic Trouble Codes 1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
USING A LAPTOP COMPUTER TO DIAGNOSE THE SPECTRUM SYSTEM
A laptop computer is the preferred tool for performing diagnostic testing of the Spectrum system. A laptop computer, with the system diagnostic cable and diagnostic software, is used to read and clear Diagnostic
Trouble codes. It is also used to monitor sensor and actuator values. The diagnostic software also performs several special tests.
The following procedures will assist you in using a laptop computer to diagnose the Spectrum system:
•
•
•
•
INSTALLING THE SPECTRUM DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE
Loading Software and Connecting the Computer
• Start Windows
•
Insert the Diagnostic Interface software CD.
Click on the START button.
From the Start menu, select RUN.
In the command-line text box, type the letter of your CD-ROM drive, followed by: \setup (for example,
e:\setup), then click OK.
Follow the on screen instructions.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Connecting a Laptop Computer to the Spectrum System
•
•
Connect the system diagnostic cable to the RS232 port on the back of the computer. If you do not have a RS-232 port use the USB to RS232 adapter cable.
Connect the diagnostic cable to the diagnostic connector on the engine harness. The diagnostic connector is a square 4-pin connector located near the Spectrum system ECM.
Turn the computer ON.
Start Windows.
From the Start menu select Programs.
Select IMPCO Display.
Place the ignition key in the ON position.
The system Gauge screen should now appear and a green banner in the upper left hand will read
“Connected”.
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
Diagnostic Trouble Codes 1C4-5
The System Fault screen is used to view and clear DTC’s, which have been set.
Checking Diagnostic Trouble Codes
The System Fault screen contains a listing of all of the Historic and Active DTC’s set within the system. If a
DTC is stored in memory, the screen will display that fault in the History column. If the fault is active it will also show up in that column.
Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes
To clear a DTC from memory use the arrow keys or mouse to move the Press the Enter key to clear the fault from memory. NOTE: Record faults before erasing them for reference during diagnostics.
1C4–6 Diagnostic Trouble Codes
DATA STREAM
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
Reading Sensor and Actuator Values
Most applicable sensor and actuator values are displayed on the Gauges screen. The display shows the value for sensors, voltages and the sensor values in engineering units.
NOTE: If a DTC for a sensor is current, the engineering value for that sensor may be a default, limp home value and the voltage value will be the actual sensor voltage. Use the voltage value when performing diagnostics unless directed to do otherwise by the diagnostic trouble tree.
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
Graphing and Data Logging
Diagnostic Trouble Codes 1C4-7
Graphing the values and voltages can be a very useful tool in doing intermittent diagnosis. The system diagnostic monitoring software includes graphing and data logging capability. These features enhance the ability to diagnose and repair possible problems with the system. The graphing feature allows sensor inputs and select control output variables to be plotted in real-time while the engine is running.
To plot a variable you must first “TAG ” the variable you wish to plot. To do this, use the mouse to highlight the variable, and then right click.
Next press the “P” key or double click the Plot/Log button to invoke the plotting feature. You may change the desired time interval for each display screen. The default is 10 seconds. This can be increased or decreased as necessary to display the desired results. You can also change the sample rate.
You are now ready to plot. Simply click the “START” button to observe the plotted variables. The plot sweeps across the screen from left to right. To pause the display screen press the “SPACE BAR” at any time during plotting. To continue plotting simply press the “SPACE BAR” again. To stop the plotting feature simply click the “STOP” button. To exit the plotting screen click the “CLOSE” button. The range of each variable is listed along the left side of the display and the time is listed along the bottom of the screen.
1C4–8 Diagnostic Trouble Codes
IGNITION SYSTEM TEST
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
The Spark Kill diagnostic mode allows the technician to disable the ignition on individual cylinders. If the
Spark Kill diagnostic mode is selected with the engine running below 1000 RPM, the minimum throttle command will lock into the position it was in when the test mode was entered. If the Spark System Test mode is selected with the engine running above 1000 RPM, the throttle will continue to operate normally.
Disabling Ignition Outputs
To disable the ignition system for an individual cylinder, use the mouse to highlight the “Spark Kill” button and select the desired coil. The spark output can be re-enabled by using the mouse to highlight the “Spark
Kill” button and selecting “Normal”. If the engine is running below 1000 RPM, the spark output will stay disabled for 15 seconds and then re-set. If the engine is running above 1000 RPM, the spark output will stay disabled for 5 seconds and then re-set. This test mode has a timeout of 10 minutes. Record the rpm drop related to each spark output disabled.
The Spark outputs are arranged in the order which the engine fires, not by cylinder number.
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
INJECTOR TEST
Diagnostic Trouble Codes 1C4-9
The Injector Kill mode is used to disable individual fuel injectors. If the Injector Kill mode is selected with the engine running below 1000 RPM, the minimum throttle command will lock into the position it was in when the test mode was entered. If the Injector Kill mode is selected with the engine running above 1000 RPM, the throttle will continue to operate normally.
Disabling Injectors
To disable an injector, use the mouse to select the desired. The word “Normal” will change to the Injector you have selected. The injector driver can be re-enabled by selecting again. If the engine is running below 1000
RPM, the injector driver will stay disabled for 15 seconds and then re-set. If the engine is running above 1000
RPM, the injector driver will stay disabled for 5 seconds and then re-set. Record the change in rpm or closed loop multiplier while each driver is disabled.
1C4–10 Diagnostic Trouble Codes
THROTTLE TEST
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine
To select this test mode the engine must be off but the key must be in the ON position.
The DBW (Drive By Wire) test mode allows the technician to control the throttle directly with the foot pedal or throttle input and is used during the diagnostic routines specified for FPP and TPS for Spectrum systems that use DBW.
FPP position displays the current position of the foot pedal as a percentage. FPP volts display the voltage which the ECM is reading from the FPP sensor.
TPS Command displays the commanded throttle position expressed as a percentage, which is being sent to the throttle. TPS Position is the actual percent of throttle opening being sent to the ECM from the throttle. TPS volts display the actual TPS signal voltage the ECM is receiving from the throttle.
Using a Diagnostic Jumper to Diagnose the ECI System
If you do not have access to a laptop computer, it is still possible to access the Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in the memory of the Spectrum system ECM using a diagnostic jumper and the Malfunction Indicator
Lamp. With the key off connect the diagnostic jumper to the ECI system diagnostic connector located near the ECM. The jumper will connect diagnostic pins A and D. Turn the ignition on but do not start the vehicle.
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will begin to flash.
1.6 liter Emission Certified GM Engine Diagnostic Trouble Codes 1C4-11
The MIL displays three digit codes by flashing the first digit, pausing, then flashing the second digit, pausing, and then flashing the third digit. There will be a long pause between codes. For example, a code 143 would be one flash followed by four flashes followed by three flashes.
The MIL will first display a 166 three times. Code 166 indicates that the ECM based diagnostic routines are functioning. Then, any Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in memory will display three times each. The MIL will then start over with the code 166. If the vehicle is started while the diagnostic jumper is in place, the MIL will flash rapidly.
Diagnostic Trouble Codes may be cleared from the system ECM memory by moving the ignition key to the
OFF position and removing the (F1) system battery fuse for at least 15 seconds. Note: This will erase all of the memory in the computer including the adaptive learn.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES FOR BI-FUEL APPLICATIONS
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) will set in both propane and gasoline fuel modes. Some DTC’s are specific to either gasoline or propane, but are described in the DTC charts as such. When dealing with a fuel specific DTC, it is advised to run the diagnostic test in the fuel mode that the code was originally set. In the case of a fuel specific DTC, the diagnostic test procedures must be performed running in the fuel mode that is described for that particular DTC. An example of this would be DTC 243 Adaptive
Learn High (LPG) The diagnostic test must be run in the LPG mode for a successful repair. In the presence of multiple DTC codes always begin with the lowest number DTC and diagnose each problem to correction, unless directed to do otherwise by the DTC chart. The DTC’s are numbered in order of importance. Having DTC 112 and DTC 122, both concerning the oxygen sensor, is possible. By repairing DTC 112 first, the problem causing the DTC 122 may also be corrected.
When a DTC is set, the ECM will illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp on the instrument panel and save the code in memory. The ECM will continue to run the self-test unless the DTC is an oxygen sensor lean, oxygen sensor rich, or an internal
ECM related DTC. If the system continues to fail the test, the lamp will stay illuminated and the DTC is current (ACTIVE). All
DTC’s are stored as historical faults until they are cleared. All DTC’s except the ECM related DTC’s will automatically clear from memory if the DTC does not reset within 50 consecutive engine run cycles.
While a Diagnostic Trouble Code is current for a sensor, the ECM may assign a default “limp home” value and use that value in its control algorithms. All of the system diagnostic self-tests run continuously during normal vehicle operation.

The HO2S (Heated Oxygen Sensor) sensor is used to determine if the fuel flow to the engine is correct by measuring the oxygen content in the exhaust gas.

This fault sets if the Closed Loop multiplier exceeds the limits of normal operation. When the multiplier cannot correctly modify the fuel flow within its limits, it is limited at -35%.
Diagnostic Aids
Always diagnose any other ECM codes that are present before beginning this diagnostic procedure.
Fuel System The system will be rich if an injector fails in an open manner. High fuel pressure due to a faulty fuel regulator or obstructed fuel return line will cause the system to run rich.
Ignition noise open or poor ground circuit to or in the ignition system or ECM may cause EMI (Electromagnetic interference). This noise could be interpreted by the ECM as ignition pulses, and the sensed RPM becomes higher than the actual speed. The ECM then delivers too much fuel, causing the system to run rich.
TMAP Sensor A higher manifold pressure than normal can cause the system to go rich. Temporarily disconnecting the MAP Sensor will allow the ECM to set a default value for MAP.
IAT Sensor Check for a shifted sensor that could cause the ECM to sense lower than actual temperature of incoming air. This can cause a rich exhaust condition.
ECT Sensor Check for a skewed sensor that could cause the ECM to sense engine temperature colder than it actually is. This could also cause a rich exhaust condition.

Circuit Description
The HO2S sensor is used to determine if the fuel flow to the engine is correct by measuring the oxygen content in the exhaust gas. The ECM uses this information to correct the fuel flow with the Closed Loop multiplier and the Adaptive multiplier. This fault sets if the Adaptive multiplier exceeds the limits of normal operation.
Diagnostic Aids
If any other DTCs are present, diagnose those first
Oxygen Sensor Wire Heated Oxygen sensor wires may be mis-routed and contacting the exhaust manifold.
Vacuum Leaks Large vacuum leaks and crankcase leaks can cause a lean exhaust condition at especially at light load.
Injectors System will be lean if an injector driver or driver circuit fails open. The system will also be lean if an injector fails in a closed manner or is dirty.
Fuel Pressure Low fuel pressure, faulty fuel injector or damaged fuel pump assembly can cause fuel system to run lean
Exhaust Leaks If there is an exhaust leak, outside air can be pulled into the exhaust and past the 02 sensor causing a false lean condition.
Fuel Quality Contaminated or spoiled fuel can cause the fuel system to be lean.
Ground Problem ECM grounds must be good battery or engine ground.

Circuit Description
The HO2S sensor is used to determine if the fuel flow to the engine is correct by measuring the oxygen content in the exhaust gas.
The ECM uses this information to correct the fuel flow with the Closed Loop multiplier and the Adaptive multiplier. This fault sets if the Adaptive multiplier exceeds the limits of normal operation.
Diagnostic Aids
Always diagnose any other ECM codes that are present before beginning this diagnostic procedure.
Fuel System The system will be rich if an injector fails in an open manner. High fuel pressure due to a faulty fuel regulator or obstructed fuel return line will cause the system to run rich.
Ignition noise open or poor ground circuit to or in the ignition system or ECM may cause EMI (Electromagnetic interference). This noise could be interpreted by the ECM as ignition pulses, and the sensed RPM becomes higher than the actual speed. The ECM then delivers too much fuel, causing the system to go rich.
TMAP Sensor A higher manifold pressure than normal can cause the system to go rich. Temporarily disconnecting the MAP Sensor will allow the ECM to set a default value for MAP.
IAT Sensor Check for a shifted sensor that could cause the ECM to sense lower than actual temperature of incoming air. This can cause a rich exhaust condition.
ECT Sensor Check for a skewed sensor that could cause the ECM to sense engine temperature colder than it actually is. This could also cause a rich exhaust condition.
