HINT:
Arrange the removed parts in the correct order.
(c) Disconnect the 2 No. 5 engine wire connectors (for Port Injection). NOTICE: Perform this step in order to stop fuel injection to prevent damage to the catalyst due to unburned fuel. | |
(d) Disconnect the No. 6 engine wire connector and No. 7 engine wire connector (for Direct Injection). NOTICE: Perform this step in order to stop fuel injection to prevent damage to the catalyst due to unburned fuel. | |
(e) Install the spark plug to the ignition coil assembly, and then connect the ignition coil assembly connector. | |
(f) Ground the spark plug.
(g) Check that spark occurs at each spark plug while the engine is being cranked.
NOTICE:
HINT:
If spark does not occur, perform the following procedure.
(h) Connect the No. 6 engine wire connector and No. 7 engine wire connector (for Direct Injection).
(i) Connect the 2 No. 5 engine wire connectors (for Port Injection).
(j) Install the 6 spark plugs and 6 ignition coil assemblies.

(a) Check the electrode. (1) Using a megohmmeter, measure the insulation resistance. Standard Insulation Resistance:
HINT:
|
|
(b) Alternative inspection method.
(1) Start the engine.
NOTICE:
Do not perform this step when any of the following DTCs are output: P030000, P030027, P030085, P030100, P030200, P030300, P030400 (Cylinder Misfire Detected).
(2) Quickly accelerate the engine to 4000 rpm 5 times.
NOTICE:
Do not perform this step when any of the following DTCs are output: P030000, P030027, P030085, P030100, P030200, P030300, P030400 (Cylinder Misfire Detected).
(3) Remove the spark plug.

(4) Visually check the spark plug.
HINT:
If the electrode is dry, the spark plug is functioning properly. If the electrode is damp, proceed to the next step.
(c) Check the spark plug for any damage to its threads and insulator.
If there is any damage, replace the spark plug.
Recommended Spark Plug:
Manufacturer | Spark Plug Type |
---|---|
DENSO | FK20HBR8 |
(d) Check the spark plug electrode gap. Maximum Electrode Gap for Used Spark Plug: 1.1 mm (0.0433 in.) NOTICE: Never attempt to adjust the electrode gap of a used spark plug. If the electrode gap is more than the maximum, replace the spark plug. Standard Electrode Gap for New Spark Plug: 0.7 to 0.8 mm (0.0276 to 0.0315 in.) |
|
(e) Install the spark plug.
