Is the measurement value within the SP value?

YES

>> GO TO 5.

NO

>> GO TO 6.

5.

CHANGE ENGINE OIL

1.

Stop the engine.

2.

Change engine oil.
NOTE:
This symptom may occur when a large amount of gasoline is mixed with engine oil because of driving
conditions (such as when engine oil temperature does not rise enough since a journey distance is too
short during winter). The symptom will not be detected after changing engine oil or changing driving con-
dition.

>> INSPECTION END

6.

CHECK FUEL PRESSURE

Check fuel pressure. Refer to 

EC-113, "Work Procedure"

.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 9.

NO-1

>> Fuel pressure is too high: Replace fuel level sensor unit, fuel filter and fuel pump assembly (refer

to 

FL-5, "Exploded View"

), and then GO TO 8.

NO-2

>> Fuel pressure is too low: GO TO 7.

7.

DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART

Check fuel hoses and fuel tubes for clogging

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> Replace Replace fuel level sensor unit, fuel filter and fuel pump assembly (refer to
