Inspection Procedure 6: The Engine Stalls when Starting the Car (pass out), The Engine Stalls when Decelerating
 
 
 
 
COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM
  • Failure is possibly caused by misfire due to failed spark plug, improper air-fuel ratio at accelerator pedal depression and so on when engine stalls at acceleration.
  • Failure is possibly caused by an insufficient amount of intake air and so on when engine stalls at deceleration.
 
 
PROBABLE CAUSES
  • Failed ignition system
  • Failed intake air system
  • Contamination around the throttle valve
  • Improper compression pressure
  • Failed engine-ECU
 
 
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
STEP 1. M.U.T.-IIISE diagnosis code
Is the diagnosis code set?
Inspection chart for diagnosis code (Refer to ).
Go to Step 2.
 
STEP 2. M.U.T.-IIISE data list
  • Data list reference table (Refer to ).
    1. Item 11: Accelerator pedal position sensor (main)
    2. Item 12: Accelerator pedal position sensor (sub)
    3. Item 13: Throttle position sensor (main)
    4. Item 15: Throttle position sensor (sub)
Are the check results normal?
YES : Go to Step 3.
Perform the diagnosis code classified check procedure for the sensor that has shown an abnormal data value. Inspection chart for diagnosis code (Refer to ).
 
STEP 3. Check air intake from intake hose and inlet manifold.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 4.
Repair.
 
STEP 4. Check throttle body (throttle valve portion) contamination.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 5.
Clean throttle body (throttle valve portion) (Refer to ).
 
STEP 5. Visual check of ignition spark.
  • Remove the spark plug and install it to the ignition coil.
  • Connect the ignition coil connector.
  • Disconnect all injector connectors.
  • At the engine start, check each spark plug produces a spark.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 6.
Check Inspection Procedure - ignition circuit system (Refer to ).
 
STEP 6. Check compression pressure.
  • Check the compression pressure (Refer to GROUP 11A - On-vehicle Service - Compression Pressure Check ).
Is the check result normal?
Replace the engine-ECU.
Repair.
