Compression

WARNINGDO NOT use ignition switch during compression tests on fuel injected vehicles. Use a remote starter to crank engine. Fuel injectors on many models are triggered by ignition switch during cranking mode, which can create a fire hazard or contaminate the engine's oiling system.

Check engine mechanical condition using a compression gauge, vacuum gauge or an engine analyzer. See engine analyzer manual for specific instructions. Ensure engine is at normal operating temperature. Engine cranking speed must be at least 250 RPM during compression test.

COMPRESSION SPECIFICATIONS

Exhaust System Backpressure

  1. Exhaust system backpressure can be checked with a vacuum or pressure gauge. If using a pressure gauge, remove oxygen sensor. Connect a 0-5 psi (0-0.35 kg/cm 2 ) pressure gauge and run engine at 2500 RPM. If exhaust system backpressure is greater than 2 psi (0.14 kg/cm 2 ), exhaust system or catalytic converter is plugged.
  2. If using a vacuum gauge, connect vacuum gauge hose to intake manifold vacuum port and start engine. Observe vacuum gauge. Open throttle part way and hold steady. If vacuum gauge reading slowly drops after stabilizing, exhaust system should be checked for a restriction.

FUEL SYSTEM

WARNINGALWAYS relieve fuel pressure before disconnecting any fuel injection-related component. DO NOT allow fuel to contact engine or electrical components.

Note. For diagnosis of a no-start or rough running condition related to a fuel system problem, go to CIRCUIT TESTS .

RELIEVING FUEL PRESSURE

CAUTIONDO NOT perform this procedure when engine is hot. Doing so may have an adverse effect on catalytic convertor.
  1. Place transmission in Neutral (M/T) or Park (A/T). Set parking brake and block drive wheels. Disconnect fuel pump relay. Fuel pump relay is located in engine compartment relay box.
  2. Remove fuel filler cap to release fuel vapor pressure in fuel tank. Reinstall fuel filler cap. Start engine and let run until it stalls. After engine stalls, crank engine 2-3 times for about 3 seconds to dissipate remaining fuel pressure in fuel lines. To restore normal operation, reinstall fuel pump relay.

Scheme 1

Scheme 1: Fuel Pressure Test
  1. Release fuel system pressure. See «RELIEVING FUEL PRESSURE»(ref-91181-S27437537842001030500000). Remove fuel inlet hose banjo bolt. Install fuel pressure adapter and gauge in banjo bolt hole. (Scheme 1)
  2. Verify battery voltage is 11 volts or greater. Turn ignition on to operate fuel pump for 3 seconds. Turn ignition off. Repeat 3-4 times, and check fuel pressure. See «FUEL PUMP PERFORMANCE»(ref-91181-S28549615972001030500000) table. Start engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature. Measure fuel pressure at idle. See «REGULATED FUEL PRESSURE»(ref-91181-S21103743732001030500000) table. Turn ignition off.
  3. If pressures are not within specification, check for faulty fuel pump, pressure regulator or restriction in fuel system. See «CIRCUIT TEST B-3: FUEL PRESSURE INSPECTION»(ref-91181-S02862548862001030500000) under CIRCUIT TESTS. Repair as necessary. Release fuel pressure and remove fuel pressure gauge. Reinstall fuel inlet hose. Start engine. Ensure no fuel leaks are present.

REGULATED FUEL PRESSURE

Fuel System Circuit

Turn ignition on, leaving engine off. Fuel pump should operate for 2 seconds. If fuel pump does not operate, check fuses, fuel pump relay, fuel pump, all electrical connections and PCM. See CIRCUIT TESTS .

IGNITION CHECKS

Note. To diagnose a no-spark condition, perform all procedures listed under IGNITION CHECKS.

All Models

  1. Disable fuel injectors by disconnecting injector harness connectors. Remove ignition coils from valve cover(s). Remove spark plugs and inspect for fouling or improper gap. Repair as necessary.
  2. Connect spark plugs to ignition coils. Ground spark plugs. Have an assistant depress clutch pedal (M/T). Crank engine. Check for strong Blue spark at spark plug. If spark is not present, check for faulty spark plug. If spark plug is okay, check ignition coil resistance. See «IGNITION COIL RESISTANCE»(ref-91181-S34688071832001030500000) .

SECONDARY WIRE RESISTANCE

CIRCUIT TEST DIRECTORY

Note. See PIN VOLTAGE/CIRCUIT RESISTANCE CHARTS article and appropriate wiring diagrams in WIRING DIAGRAMS article for PCM connector and wire terminal identification.

Fuel Injector Circuit

  1. Using a mechanic's stethoscope, check each fuel injector for operating "clicking" sound as engine is cranked. If all fuel injectors made operating sound, fuel injector circuit is okay. If no injectors made operating sound, go to next step. If one or more fuel injector(s) do not make operating sound, check for faulty injector wiring harness, faulty injectors or poor connections. If injector wiring harness, injector(s) and connections are okay, replace PCM and retest system.
  2. Turn ignition off. Disconnect harness connector from No. 1 fuel injector. Turn ignition on. Using DVOM, measure voltage between ground and Blue/Black wire terminal of harness connector. If DVOM indicates battery voltage, go to next step. If DVOM does not indicate battery voltage, repair power circuit for an open or short and retest system. See appropriate wiring diagram in WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
  3. Turn ignition off. Disconnect PCM harness connectors. Using DVOM, check for continuity in all injector circuits at appropriate PCM harness connector terminals. See appropriate wiring diagram in WIRING DIAGRAMS article. If continuity is not present in all injector circuits, go to next step. If continuity is present in all injector circuits, replace PCM and retest system.
  4. Using DVOM, measure resistance of each injector where circuit did not indicate continuity. See SERVICE & ADJUSTMENT SPECIFICATIONS article for resistance specifications. Repair as necessary. If injectors are okay, replace PCM and retest system.

  1. Turn ignition on. If fuel pump is heard for 2 seconds, circuit is in good condition. If fuel pump is not heard, go to next step. CAUTION: Ensure jumper connections are made correctly. Improper connections may result in damage to PCM and wire harness.
  2. Turn ignition off. Remove fuel pump relay from engine compartment relay box. Using a fused jumper wire, connect terminal cavities No. 1 and 2 at relay box together. (Scheme 9)or (Scheme 10). Turn ignition on. If fuel pump is heard, go to next step. If fuel pump is not heard, check for open in Pink wire, Black wire or Red/Black wire (White/Black wire on Swift) to fuel pump relay connector. Repair as necessary. If wires are okay, replace fuel pump and retest system.
  3. Turn ignition off. Using DVOM, measure resistance between fuel pump relay terminals. (Scheme 11) Continuity should not be present between relay terminals No. 1 and 2. Resistance between relay terminals No. 3 and 4 should be 70-110 ohms on Esteem, or 79-95 ohms on Swift. Continuity should be present between relay terminals No. 1 and 2 as battery voltage and ground are applied to relay terminals No. 3 and 4. If resistance is as specified, go to next step. If resistance is not as specified, replace fuel pump relay and retest system.
  4. Check Yellow/Blue wire (Pink/White wire on Swift) between PCM and fuel pump relay for an open or poor connection. Repair as necessary. If wire is okay, replace PCM and retest system.

Scheme 12: Grand Vitara & Vitara
  1. Turn ignition on. If fuel pump is heard for 3 seconds, circuit is in good condition. If fuel pump is not heard, go to next step. CAUTION: Ensure jumper connections are made correctly. Improper connections may result in damage to PCM and wire harness.
  2. Turn ignition off. Using a fused jumper wire, connect Pink/Black wire and Black/White wire terminals at fuel pump relay connector located on right side of engine compartment. Turn ignition on. If fuel pump is heard, go to next step. If fuel pump is not heard, check Pink/Black wire or Black/White wire for an open or poor connection. Repair as necessary. If wire and connections are okay, replace fuel pump and retest system.
  3. Turn ignition off. Remove fuel pump relay. Using DVOM, measure resistance between fuel pump relay terminals. (Scheme 12) Continuity should not be present between relay terminals "A" and "B". On Vitara 4-cylinder, resistance between relay terminals "C" and "D" should be 79-95 ohms at 68°F (20°C). On Grand Vitara V6, resistance between relay terminals "C" and "D" should be 70-110 ohms at 68°F (20°C). Continuity should be present between relay terminals "A" and "B" as battery voltage and ground are applied to relay terminals "C" and "D". If resistance is as specified, go to next step. If resistance is not as specified, replace fuel pump relay and retest system.
  4. Check for poor connection or open in Black/White wire or White/Green wire to fuel pump relay. Repair as necessary. If wire and connections are okay, replace PCM and retest system.
