INTRODUCTION
Removal, overhaul and installation procedures are covered in this article. If component removal and installation is primarily an unbolt and bolt-on procedure, only a torque specification may be furnished.
Note. On models with anti-theft radio, obtain code number and deactivate anti-theft alarm before disconnecting battery cable.
DISTRIBUTOR
Refer to appropriate illustration when removing, overhauling or installing distributor. (Scheme 1)
Scheme 1
Removal & Installation
Crank angle sensor is located on front of engine, near crank pulley. To remove, disconnect sensor connector. Remove mounting bolt. Remove sensor. To install, reverse removal procedure. Tighten bolt to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
FUEL SYSTEM
| WARNING | Always relieve fuel pressure before disconnecting any fuel injection-related component. DO NOT allow fuel to contact engine or electrical components. |
FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE RELEASE
- Start engine. Disconnect fuel pump relay or circuit opening relay. See «FUEL PUMP/CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY LOCATION»(/mazda/929/hd-1993-1995/remont/removal-installation/#engine-controls-removeinstalloverhaul) table.
- Allow engine to run until it stalls. Turn ignition off. Reconnect electrical connector.
| Application | Location |
|---|---|
| 929 | Underhood Fuse Block |
FUEL PUMP/CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY LOCATION
FUEL SYSTEM PRIMING
| CAUTION | After performing fuel system repairs, use following procedure to prime fuel system before starting engine. This prevents excessive engine cranking and allows system to be leak-tested. |
Connect jumper wire between GND and F/P terminals of data link connector. (Scheme 2) Turn ignition on for about 10 seconds and then off. Disconnect jumper wire.
Scheme 2
FUEL PUMP
| CAUTION | After performing fuel system repairs, prime fuel system before starting engine. See FUEL SYSTEM PRIMING . |
- Release fuel system pressure. See «FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE RELEASE»(/mazda/929/hd-1993-1995/remont/removal-installation/#engine-controls-removeinstalloverhaul__fuel-system-pressure-release) .
- Remove rear seat mounting bolts, located between seat bottom and seat back cushions. Remove seat cushions. Remove amplifier and CD changer (if equipped) and lift luggage compartment carpeting. Remove hole cover.
- Disconnect fuel hoses and electrical connector. Remove fuel pump and sending unit assembly. Remove fuel pump from assembly. To install, reverse removal procedure.
FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR
| CAUTION | After performing fuel system repairs, prime fuel system before starting engine. See FUEL SYSTEM PRIMING . |
- Disconnect negative battery cable. Release fuel system pressure. See «FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE RELEASE»(/mazda/929/hd-1993-1995/remont/removal-installation/#engine-controls-removeinstalloverhaul__fuel-system-pressure-release) . Remove dynamic chamber. Disconnect vacuum and fuel hose(s) from regulator. Remove regulator mounting bolts. Remove regulator, gasket and "O" ring (if equipped).
- To install, reverse removal procedure. Install NEW gasket and "O" ring (if equipped). Install dynamic chamber with NEW gasket. Tighten bolts to specification. See «TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS»(/mazda/929/hd-1993-1995/remont/removal-installation/#engine-controls-removeinstalloverhaul) .
FUEL RAILS & INJECTORS
| CAUTION | After performing fuel system repairs, prime fuel system before starting engine. See FUEL SYSTEM PRIMING . |
- Disconnect negative battery cable. Release fuel system pressure. See «FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE RELEASE»(/mazda/929/hd-1993-1995/remont/removal-installation/#engine-controls-removeinstalloverhaul__fuel-system-pressure-release) . Remove dynamic chamber and throttle body as an assembly. Disconnect injector electrical connectors. Disconnect vacuum and fuel hoses. Remove fuel rail, injectors and pressure regulator as an assembly.
- Remove insulators, injectors and "O" rings from fuel rail. To install, reverse removal procedure. Apply coat of engine oil to NEW "O" rings, and install rings on injectors. Install NEW insulators. Tighten fuel rail mounting bolts to specification. See «TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS»(/mazda/929/hd-1993-1995/remont/removal-installation/#engine-controls-removeinstalloverhaul) .
Removal
Disconnect oxygen sensor electrical connector. Sensor may be difficult to remove when engine temperature is less than 120°F (48°C). If sensor is difficult to remove, use rust penetrant to avoid damaging threads. Carefully remove sensor.
Installation
Apply anti-seize to sensor threads (if reusing old sensor or if new sensor is not coated with anti-seize). Install sensor and tighten to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Reconnect sensor electrical connector.
THROTTLE BODY
| CAUTION | After performing fuel system repairs, prime fuel system before starting engine. See FUEL SYSTEM PRIMING . |
- Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove air intake tubes.
- Disconnect accelerator cable, coolant hoses and electrical connectors from throttle body as necessary. Remove by-pass air control valve. Remove throttle body. To install, reverse removal procedure using NEW throttle body gasket. See «TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS»(/mazda/929/hd-1993-1995/remont/removal-installation/#engine-controls-removeinstalloverhaul) .
