11 -ENGINE > 11A-ENGINE MECHANICAL > ON-VEHICLE SERVICE > IDLE SPEED CHECK
1. Before inspection, set the vehicle to the pre-inspection condition.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position and then connect the M.U.T.-IIISE to the diagnosis connector (Refer to GROUP 00 - Precautions Before Service - M.U.T.-IIISE 
). 3. Set the timing light to the power supply line (terminal No. 3) of the ignition coil No. 1.| note | The power supply line is looped and also longer than the other ones. |
4. Start the engine and let it run at idle.
5. Check that ignition timing is at the standard value.Standard value: approximately 10° BTDC
| note | - The ignition timing may fluctuate within ±7°. This is normal.
- In higher altitude, the ignition timing is more advanced than the standard value by approximately 5°.
- Wait till approximately 1 minute passes after the engine started, and check the ignition timing when the engine stabilized.
|
6. Check the idle speed.Standard value: 750 ± 100 r/min
| note | - The idle speed is controlled automatically by the idle speed control system.
- When using the M.U.T.-IIISE, select item No. 2 and take a reading of the idle speed.
|
7. If the idle speed is outside the standard value, inspect the MPI system (Refer to GROUP 13A - Troubleshooting - Inspection Chart for Trouble Symptoms ). 8. Remove the timing light.
9. Turn the ignition switch to "LOCK" (OFF) position and then disconnect the M.U.T.-IIISE.
