Why is Engine Management Systems used? Engine Management Systems (EMS) are used to monitor and control various functions of an engine to optimize its performance, efficiency, and emissions. These systems use a network of sensors and actuators to gather data about the engine's operating conditions and adjust various parameters such as fuel injection, ignition timing, idle speed, and emissions control systems accordingly. By using an EMS, the engine can be operated at its optimal efficiency, resulting in better fuel economy, lower emissions, and improved overall performance. Additionally, EMS can help diagnose and identify problems with the engine, making it easier to perform maintenance and repairs. 10. What is meant by combustion? Combustion refers to the chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidizing agent, usually oxygen, that results in the release of heat energy and the production of various combustion products such as carbon dioxide, water vapour, and other gases. In an internal combustion engine, combustion occurs within the combustion chamber, igniting the fuel-air mixture and producing the energy needed to drive the engine's mechanical components. 11. What are the two main chemicals in petrol? The two main chemicals in petrol (gasoline) are hydrocarbons and additives. Hydrocarbons include compounds such as octane, isooctane, and heptane, which are responsible for providing energy when burned. Additives are chemical compounds added to petrol to improve its performance, stability, and other characteristics. Examples of additives include detergents, anti-knock agents, and stabilizers. 12. Why does the engine need a mixture of air and fuel? The engine needs a mixture of air and fuel to facilitate combustion, which is the process that releases energy and powers the engine. Air provides oxygen that is necessary for combustion to occur, while fuel Document Name: Student Written Questions – AURETR123 Version: 2.0 © Strathfield College | RTO Code: 91223 | CRICOS Code: 02736K Page Sequence: Page 9 of 39 Downloaded by Mudassar Hussain (mdsrhsn17@gmail.com) lOMoARcPSD|38316820
AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems provides the combustible material. The air-fuel mixture must be properly balanced to ensure efficient combustion and optimal engine performance. 13. What is air/fuel ratio and why is it important? A rich mixture refers to a fuel-air mixture that has a higher proportion of fuel to air than the ideal air-fuel ratio. emissions, and potentially damage to the engine. A lean mixture can cause increased combustion A lean mixture, on the other hand, refers to a fuel-air mixture that has a lower proportion of fuel to air than the ideal air-fuel ratio. Both rich and lean mixtures can have negative effects on engine performance and emissions. A rich mixture can cause incomplete combustion, leading to decreased fuel efficiency, increased temperatures, which can lead to engine damage, and can also result in decreased power and increased emissions. 14. What is a rich mixture? What is a lean mixture? A rich mixture is a fuel-air mixture that contains a higher ratio of fuel to air than the stoichiometric ratio (the ideal air-fuel ratio for complete combustion). This can result in incomplete combustion and the release of excess hydrocarbons (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) into the atmosphere A lean mixture is a fuel-air mixture that contains a lower ratio of fuel to air than the stoichiometric ratio. This can result in incomplete combustion and the release of excess nitrogen oxides (NOx) into the atmosphere. A lean mixture can also cause engine overheating and damage if the combustion temperature becomes too high. 15. What does the term stratified charge mean? The term stratified charge refers to a combustion process in which the air/fuel mixture in the combustion chamber is intentionally stratified or separated into distinct layers. This is typically achieved by injecting fuel directly into the combustion chamber in a precise pattern or by using specially designed intake and exhaust systems to promote air flow. The goal of a stratified charge is to create a more efficient combustion process by ensuring that the fuel is concentrated in the right place at the right time, which can help to reduce emissions and improve fuel economy. 16. What is meant by “Octane Rating”? Octane rating is a measure of a fuel's ability to resist "knocking" or detonation during combustion. It is a numerical rating system that represents the percentage of iso-octane in a mixture of iso-octane and n-heptane, which has the same anti-knock properties as the fuel being tested. The higher the octane rating, the more resistant the fuel is to knocking, and the higher the compression ratio that can be used in an engine without causing premature ignition. 17. Name the four (4) typical Fuel Injection systems? 1 Throttle Body Injection (TBI) Document Name: Student Written Questions – AURETR123 Version: 2.0 © Strathfield College | RTO Code: 91223 | CRICOS Code: 02736K Page Sequence: Page 10 of 39 Downloaded by Mudassar Hussain (mdsrhsn17@gmail.com) lOMoARcPSD|38316820
AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems 2 Multiport Fuel Injection(MPFI) 3 Multiport Fuel Injection (MPFI) 4 Sequential Fuel Injection (SFI) 18. Explain the major differences between throttle body injectors and port fuel injectors? Throttle body injectors (TBI) and port fuel injectors (PFI) are two types of fuel injection systems used in internal combustion engines. The major differences between them are: Placement of the injectors: Throttle body injectors are mounted in the throttle body unit, which is located at the entrance of the intake manifold. Port fuel injectors, on the other hand, are placed in the intake manifold, near each cylinder's intake port. Fuel delivery: TBI injects fuel into the throttle body unit, where it mixes with incoming air before being delivered to the cylinders. PFI, on the other hand, delivers fuel directly to each cylinder's intake port. Precision: PFI injectors are more precise in delivering fuel to each cylinder, allowing for better fuel economy and emissions control. TBI injectors, due to their placement in the throttle body unit, can cause uneven fuel distribution among the cylinders. 19. Explain the basic operation of a CMFI system? CMFI stands for Central Multiport Fuel Injection system. In this system, fuel is injected into the intake manifold through a central injector that supplies fuel to all the cylinders. The fuel pressure regulator maintains a constant fuel pressure, and a manifold absolute pressure sensor (MAP) measures the intake manifold pressure. The engine control module (ECM) receives input from various sensors, such as the MAP sensor, coolant temperature sensor, and throttle position sensor, to determine the fuel and timing requirements of the engine. Multiple Choice question. Selected the correct answer. 20. In a GDI system (gasoline direct injection) the injector sprays fuel into the ______. A. Intake manifold (plenum). B. Intake runner in manifold. C. Intake port in cylinder head. D. Cylinders (combustion chamber). 21. Where in the fuel system is a fuel filter usually found? A fuel filter is usually located between the fuel tank and the fuel injectors, either inline or inside the fuel tank itsel 22. What is the purpose of the fuel filter? The purpose of the fuel filter is to remove impurities and contaminants from the fuel before it reaches the fuel injectors or carburetor. This helps to prevent damage to the fuel system and engine components, and ensures that the fuel mixture is clean and consistent for proper combustion.

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems 23. The arrow printed on a fuel filter must face in what direction? The arrow on a fuel filter indicates the direction of fuel flow, so it must face toward the engine or in the direction of fuel flow. 24. Explain what a fuel pump does? A fuel pump is an essential component of the fuel system, responsible for supplying fuel from the fuel tank to the engine. It creates the pressure needed to force fuel through the fuel lines, filter and injectors or carburetor, where it is mixed with air and burned to produce power. In most modern vehicles, the fuel pump is an electric pump that is located inside or outside of the fuel tank. When the key is turned on, the fuel pump starts running and continues to run as long as the engine is running, providing a steady flow of fuel to the engine. 25. Where can fuel pump be located in a vehicle? Fuel pumps can be located in different places in a vehicle depending on the design and type of the vehicle. In older vehicles with carburettors, the fuel pump is usually located on the engine block and is driven by a camshaft. In newer vehicles with EFI systems, the fuel pump can be located inside the fuel tank, which is the most common location. Some vehicles may have the fuel pump mounted outside the tank, on the frame rail or under the car. Additionally, some high-performance or racing vehicles may have multiple fuel pumps for increased fuel flow. 26. What are “High Pressure” fuel pumps? High-pressure fuel pumps are fuel pumps that deliver fuel to the fuel injectors at high pressures, typically above 1,000 psi (pounds per square inch), in order to create a fine spray pattern for more efficient combustion in modern gasoline direct injection (GDI) systems. They are often driven by a camshaft, a lobe on the camshaft, or a separate high-pressure pump drive on the engine. These pumps can be either mechanical or electric, and are designed to deliver the required fuel volume and pressure to meet the engine's demands. 27. High pressure fuel pumps on GDI systems can operate at what pressures? High pressure fuel pumps on GDI (gasoline direct injection) systems can operate at pressures up to 200 bar (2,900 psi). 28. What are two (2) type of fuel pumps used with engine management vehicles? 1 mechanical fuel pumps 2 electric fuel pumps 29. Why are some fuel pumps located inside the fuel tank? Some fuel pumps are located inside the fuel tank because it helps to keep the fuel pump submerged in fuel, which helps to keep it cool during operation. This is especially important with high-pressure fuel pumps, which can generate a lot of heat. Additionally, locating the fuel pump inside the fuel tank helps to dampen the noise that is generated by the fuel pump during operation. Finally, having the fuel pump inside the fuel tank allows for a simpler and more compact fuel system design.

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems 30. What is the purpose of the pressure regulator in a fuel system? The purpose of the pressure regulator in a fuel system is to maintain a constant fuel pressure to the fuel injectors, regardless of changes in fuel demand or engine speed. It controls the pressure in the fuel system by regulating the amount of fuel that is returned to the fuel tank versus the amount that is sent to the fuel injectors. This helps ensure that the injectors receive the correct amount of fuel under all operating conditions, which is critical for proper engine performance and emissions control. 31. On return less fuel systems, where is the pressure regulator located? On return less fuel systems, the pressure regulator is often integrated into the fuel pump module or mounted on the fuel rail. 32. What are fuel injectors? Fuel injectors are components in the fuel system of an engine that deliver fuel to the engine's combustion chamber in a precise and controlled manner. They are electronically controlled valves that receive signals from the engine control module (ECM) and open and close to spray fuel into the intake manifold or directly into the combustion chamber, depending on the type of fuel injection system. The amount of fuel delivered by each injector is based on signals from various sensors in the engine, including the throttle position sensor, oxygen sensor, and mass airflow sensor, among others. 33. Name the eight [8] parts of a fuel injector below. 1 Filter 2 Electrical Connection 3 Spring 4 Solenoid coil 5 Solenoid Housing 6 Pintle Valve 7 Pintle Cap 8 Fuel Outlet Hole 34. How is the fuel injector operated? The fuel injector is operated electronically by the engine control module (ECM) or the fuel injection control module (FICM) in response to signals received from various engine sensors. The injector is activated to open a valve which allows pressurized fuel to be sprayed in a fine mist into the intake manifold or directly into the combustion chamber depending on the type of fuel injection system. The duration of fuel injection is precisely controlled by the ECM or FICM to ensure the correct air/fuel ratio is maintained for efficient combustion.

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems 44. Describe the purpose of an ECT signal on an EFI system. The ECT (Engine Coolant Temperature) sensor is used to monitor the temperature of the engine coolant. Its signal is used by the engine control module (ECM) to adjust the fuel injection and ignition timing. At startup, the ECM uses the ECT signal to determine the engine's initial fuel and timing settings. As the engine warms up, the ECT signal helps the ECM to adjust the fuel injection and ignition timing to optimize engine performance and reduce emissions. If the ECT signal is lost or out of range, the ECM will typically use a default value to maintain engine operation. Multiple Choice question. Selected the correct answer. 45. The engine coolant temperature sensor helps to control all the following EXCEPT: A. Fuel pressure. B. Open loop/closed loop operation. C. EGR opening. D. Ignition timing. 46. What is an oxygen sensor? An oxygen sensor, also known as an O2 sensor, is a device that measures the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gases of an engine. The sensor is located in the exhaust system and sends a signal to the engine control module (ECM) or powertrain control module (PCM) to help determine the correct air/fuel ratio for optimal combustion efficiency. The oxygen sensor is a critical component of a vehicle's emissions control system and helps reduce harmful pollutants released into the environment. Multiple Choice question.

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems The purpose of a mass airflow sensor (MAF) is to measure the amount of air entering the engine so that the engine control module (ECM) can determine the appropriate fuel injector pulse width and ignition timing for optimal performance and emissions. The two designs of mass airflow sensors are: Hot-wire MAF sensor: This design uses a heated wire to measure the amount of airflow entering the engine. As the air flows over the wire, it cools it down, and the ECM measures the amount of electrical current required to keep the wire at a constant temperature. The more air flowing over the wire, the more electrical current required to maintain the temperature, and the ECM calculates the airflow based on the current needed to maintain the temperature. Vane-type MAF sensor: This design uses a vane mounted in the intake air stream to measure the amount of airflow. The vane is connected to a potentiometer that varies its electrical resistance based on the position of the vane. The ECM measures the resistance and calculates the airflow based on the vane position. Multiple Choice question. Selected the correct answer. 50. Which of the following is NOT a type of mass airflow sensor? A. Karmen-Vortex. B. Vane type. C. Hot wire. D. Hall effect. 51. Explain what a MAP sensor does? A MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor is an engine management sensor that measures the pressure of the air inside the intake manifold. The sensor provides the ECU (Engine Control Unit) with important information about the engine's load and operating conditions, which can be used to calculate the appropriate air/fuel mixture for optimal performance and emissions control. The MAP sensor works by measuring the difference between the atmospheric pressure and the pressure inside the intake manifold. As the engine's load changes, the manifold pressure also changes, and this information is used by the ECU to adjust the fuel injection and ignition timing for optimal performance In addition to measuring manifold pressure, some MAP sensors also incorporate a barometric pressure sensor, which provides the ECU with information about changes in atmospheric pressure that can affect engine performance at different altitudes. 52. What does the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor measure? The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor measures the temperature of the incoming air that enters the engine. The sensor is usually located in the intake manifold or air intake duct and provides the Engine Control Module (ECM) with information about the temperature of the incoming air. This information is used by the ECM to calculate the correct fuel delivery and ignition timing for optimal engine performance and efficiency. 53. What is the function of the crankshaft position sensor [CKP]? The crankshaft position sensor [CKP] measures the position and rotational speed of the crankshaft and sends this information to the engine control module [ECM]. The ECM uses this information to determine the ignition timing, fuel injection timing, and other important engine functions. The CKP sensor is a critical Document Name: Student Written Questions – AURETR123 Version: 2.0 © Strathfield College | RTO Code: 91223 | CRICOS Code: 02736K Page Sequence: Page 17 of 39 Downloaded by Mudassar Hussain (mdsrhsn17@gmail.com) lOMoARcPSD|38316820

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems component in ensuring the proper operation of the engine. Multiple Choice question. Selected the correct answer. 54. Which sensor synchronises the firing of the injectors and determines when piston number one (1) is on the compression stroke? A. CKP [crankshaft position sensor]. B. CMP [camshaft position sensor]. C. TPS [throttle position sensor]. D. VSS [vehicle speed sensor]. 55. What does the camshaft position (CMP) sensor monitor, and why? The camshaft position (CMP) sensor monitors the position and speed of the camshaft in relation to the crankshaft. It is important for engine control as it helps the electronic control module (ECM) to accurately determine the precise timing of the engine's valve events. The ECM uses the information from the CMP sensor to control fuel injection, ignition timing, and other engine functions. The sensor can be located in various positions depending on the engine design, and may use a variety of sensing technologies such as magnetic, optical or hall effect sensors. Multiple Choice question. Selected the correct answer. 56. Low battery voltage might result in? A. Cylinder head temperature increase. B. Faulty sensor reading. C. Half of the cylinders continue to fire as normally. D. All answers are correct. 57. Can the PCM operate without good voltage supply and good ground connection? No, the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) cannot operate without a good voltage supply and a good ground connection. The PCM relies on a steady voltage supply and a good ground connection to function properly, and any issues with these connections can cause various electrical problems, including incorrect sensor readings, misfires, and even complete engine failure. 58. What purpose of the power steering pressure switch do in regard to engine management? The power steering pressure switch is used in some engine management systems to increase the idle speed when the power steering system is under load. When the power steering system is under load, such as when the wheels are turned at low speeds, the pressure in the system increases. The power steering pressure switch detects this increase in pressure and sends a signal to the engine control module (ECM), which in turn increases the idle speed to compensate for the added load on the engine. This prevents the engine from stalling or running roughly when the power steering system is under load. 59. Why does the engine use a knock sensor (KS)? Document Name: Student Written Questions – AURETR123 Version: 2.0 © Strathfield College | RTO Code: 91223 | CRICOS Code: 02736K Page Sequence: Page 18 of 39 Downloaded by Mudassar Hussain (mdsrhsn17@gmail.com) lOMoARcPSD|38316820
AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems The engine uses a knock sensor (KS) to detect the occurrence of engine knock or detonation. Engine knock or detonation is an uncontrolled explosion of the air/fuel mixture in the combustion chamber that can cause engine damage. The KS detects these abnormal combustion events and sends a signal to the engine control module (ECM) to adjust the ignition timing and prevent further detonation. This helps to protect the engine from damage and ensure optimal performance. 60. What type of sensor is the knock sensor (KS)? The knock sensor (KS) is a type of piezoelectric sensor that detects engine knock or detonation by converting mechanical vibration caused by the knock into an electrical signal that the engine control module (ECM) can interpret. 61. A vehicles computer’s memory holds the programs and other data, such as vehicle calibrations, which the CPU refers to while making calculations. What are four (4) types of memory in a computer? How does each memory operate? In a computer, there are several types of memory with different functions. These include: Random Access Memory (RAM): This is the primary memory used by the CPU to store and retrieve data quickly. It is volatile, meaning that it loses its data when the computer is turned off. Read-Only Memory (ROM): This type of memory is non-volatile, which means that it retains its data even when the computer is turned off. ROM is used to store firmware, including the BIOS that controls the computer's basic functions. Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM): This is a type of non-volatile memory that can be reprogrammed. It is used to store system configuration data and calibration tables. Hard Disk Drive (HDD): This is a type of non-volatile memory that stores data magnetically on a spinning disk. It is used to store the operating system, programs, and user data. Each type of memory operates differently. RAM is the fastest memory and is used to temporarily store data that the CPU needs to access quickly. ROM is used to store firmware that the CPU needs to access during the boot process. EEPROM is used to store system configuration data that needs to be retained even when the power is turned off. The hard disk drive is used for long-term storage of data and programs, and its speed is much slower than that of RAM. Multiple Choice question. Selected the correct answer. 62. Which of the answers below allows control modules to share sensor output status information without the need for additional sensors or wiring? A. Multiplexing. B. Transcription. C. Reprogramming. D. Pulse width modulation. 63. A system’s adaptive strategy is based on a plan for the timing and control of computer-controlled systems during different operating conditions. What does this mean? A system's adaptive strategy refers to its ability to adjust the timing and control of computer-controlled systems based on various operating conditions. These conditions include factors such as engine Document Name: Student Written Questions – AURETR123 Version: 2.0 © Strathfield College | RTO Code: 91223 | CRICOS Code: 02736K Page Sequence: Page 19 of 39 Downloaded by Mudassar Hussain (mdsrhsn17@gmail.com) lOMoARcPSD|38316820
AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems temperature, driving conditions, and fuel quality. The strategy is designed to optimize performance and efficiency, and it involves adjusting fuel and air delivery, ignition timing, and other parameters to achieve the desired result. The adaptive strategy allows the engine management system to adapt to changes in the operating environment, ensuring that the engine runs smoothly and efficiently at all times. 64. Describe what ‘Short-term fuel trim’ (STFT) and ‘Long-term fuel trim’ (LTFT) is? Short-term fuel trim (STFT) and long-term fuel trim (LTFT) are parameters used by the engine control module (ECM) to adjust the air/fuel mixture and optimize engine performance. STFT refers to the immediate adjustments made by the ECM to the fuel delivery system based on real-time sensor readings. This allows the ECM to adjust the air/fuel ratio to account for changes in engine load, temperature, and other variables that can affect combustion efficiency. STFT values are typically measured in percentage points, with a positive value indicating that the ECM is adding fuel and a negative value indicating that it is reducing fuel. LTFT, on the other hand, is a longer-term adjustment to the air/fuel mixture. This parameter is used to compensate for changes in the engine over time, such as wear and tear or changes in fuel quality. LTFT values are typically measured as a percentage of the base fuel trim value, and can be adjusted by the ECM over time as needed to maintain optimal engine performance. Together, STFT and LTFT allow the ECM to continuously adjust the air/fuel mixture to ensure that the engine is running as efficiently and cleanly as possible. Multiple Choice question. Selected the correct answer. 65. The computer sends a constant, predetermined voltage signal to a sensor. The sensor reacts to operating conditions and sends a voltage signal back to the computer.

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems 67. What is meant by sequential firing of the fuel injectors? Sequential firing of the fuel injectors means that each injector is fired in a specific order, corresponding to the engine's firing order. This allows for precise fuel delivery to each cylinder at the appropriate time, resulting in improved fuel efficiency and engine performance. In contrast, non-sequential firing injectors spray fuel simultaneously, which can lead to uneven fuel distribution and poor engine performance. 68. The PCM has control over the engine’s idle speed. How does it accomplish this? The PCM (Powertrain Control Module) uses inputs from various sensors to determine the engine's idle speed and adjust it as needed. The PCM controls the idle speed by adjusting the amount of air entering the engine through the throttle body. It does this by opening and closing the idle air control (IAC) valve to regulate the airflow. The IAC valve is a solenoid that is controlled by the PCM, and it is typically located on the throttle body. The PCM uses information from the engine coolant temperature sensor, the throttle position sensor, and the oxygen sensors to determine the correct idle speed. If the idle speed is too low or too high, the PCM will adjust the IAC valve to bring it back to the desired level. 69. How is the fuel pump relay powered up on an EFI vehicle? The fuel pump relay on an EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection) vehicle is typically powered up through the PCM (Powertrain Control Module). When the key is turned to the "ON" position, the PCM energizes the fuel pump relay for a few seconds to prime the fuel system. Once the engine is started and the PCM receives input from various sensors, it determines the appropriate fuel pressure required and sends a signal to the fuel pump relay to turn on the fuel pump and maintain the required fuel pressure. The PCM constantly monitors the fuel pressure and adjusts the fuel pump's operation as necessary 70. Explain how the PCM controls the engine cooling fans? The PCM (Powertrain Control Module) controls the engine cooling fans by monitoring inputs from various sensors such as the engine coolant temperature sensor, A/C refrigerant pressure sensor, and vehicle speed sensor. When the coolant temperature rises above a predetermined level or when the A/C compressor is turned on, the PCM sends a signal to the cooling fan relay to turn on the fans. The PCM can also vary the speed of the fans by sending different signals to the relay. The PCM may also turn on the fans after the engine is turned off to prevent heat soak and to cool the engine compartment. 71. What process does the vehicle HVAC system go through to asking the PCM to turn the air conditioning compressor on? The vehicle HVAC system sends a request to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) to turn the air conditioning (A/C) compressor on. The PCM will only activate the compressor if certain conditions are met, such as the engine being at operating temperature and the A/C button being pressed. Once the PCM receives the request and confirms that the conditions are met, it will signal the A/C compressor relay to activate the compressor. This allows the A/C system to function and provide cool air to the vehicle's cabin. 72. Variable intake manifolds have a motor connected to a butterfly valve in the centre of the manifold. The valve is closed during low speeds, keeping the two plenum areas separated. How does the valve open to allow the plenums to become one? The motor connected to the butterfly valve in the centre of the manifold is controlled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) based on the operating conditions of the engine. The PCM uses various sensors to determine the engine load and speed and decides when to open or close the valve. When the engine is operating at low speeds, the valve remains closed, keeping the two plenum areas separated. As the engine Document Name: Student Written Questions – AURETR123 Version: 2.0 © Strathfield College | RTO Code: 91223 | CRICOS Code: 02736K Page Sequence: Page 21 of 39 Downloaded by Mudassar Hussain (mdsrhsn17@gmail.com) lOMoARcPSD|38316820

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems speed increases, the PCM opens the valve, allowing the two plenums to become one, creating a larger volume of air and improving engine performance. The PCM controls the valve's opening angle based on the input from various sensors to ensure optimal engine performance. 73. Describe the operation of a digital EGR valve? A digital EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve is an electronically controlled valve that regulates the flow of exhaust gas into the intake manifold. It works by opening or closing a small passage between the exhaust manifold and the intake manifold to regulate the amount of exhaust gas that enters the engine. The operation of a digital EGR valve is controlled by the PCM (Powertrain Control Module). The PCM uses inputs from various sensors to determine the engine load, temperature, and speed, and then calculates the appropriate amount of exhaust gas to recirculate into the engine. The digital EGR valve operates in a binary fashion, which means that it is either fully open or fully closed. It uses a small DC motor to actuate the valve, which is controlled by a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal from the PCM. The PWM signal varies the duty cycle of the voltage supplied to the motor, which in turn controls the position of the valve. The digital EGR valve is more precise and responsive than traditional EGR valves, which use a vacuum- controlled diaphragm to open or close the valve. The digital EGR valve can be adjusted in real-time to provide the exact amount of EGR needed for a given operating condition, resulting in better engine performance and lower emissions. 74. To gain more control of canister purging, the EVAP operation is controlled by the PCM. How? The EVAP (evaporative emission control system) is designed to capture and store fuel vapors from the fuel tank and prevent them from escaping into the atmosphere. The canister purge valve is responsible for allowing the stored fuel vapors to be drawn into the engine and burned. The PCM monitors the fuel tank pressure sensor to determine the pressure in the fuel tank. It also monitors the purge flow sensor to determine the flow of fuel vapors through the canister purge valve. Based on this information, the PCM can control the canister purge valve to regulate the flow of fuel vapors into the engine. The PCM uses a solenoid to control the canister purge valve. When the solenoid is energized, it allows vacuum to be applied to the valve, which opens and allows the fuel vapors to flow into the engine. The PCM can adjust the duration and frequency of the solenoid's operation to regulate the amount of fuel vapors that are purged from the canister. This helps to ensure that the engine is running efficiently and that emissions are minimized. 75. How does the PCM control the accelerator on an electronic throttle control system? On an electronic throttle control system, the PCM controls the accelerator by receiving input from the accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor. The APP sensor measures the position and movement of the accelerator pedal, and sends a signal to the PCM. Based on this signal and other inputs, such as engine speed and load, the PCM calculates the appropriate throttle position and sends a signal to the throttle actuator motor to adjust the throttle blade opening accordingly. This allows the PCM to control the engine speed and torque output, providing precise and smooth acceleration.

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems 76. The PCM can adjust the variable valve timing on an engine. Explain how this is done? Variable valve timing (VVT) is a system that allows the engine to adjust the timing of the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves. The PCM controls VVT by using solenoids to adjust oil flow to the camshaft phases, which change the camshaft timing. The camshaft phase is mounted on the end of the camshaft and contains a rotor and stator. When oil pressure is applied to the phase, it rotates the rotor, which changes the position of the camshaft relative to the crankshaft. This changes the timing of the valve opening and closing, which can improve engine performance, reduce emissions, and increase fuel efficiency. The PCM uses input from various sensors, such as the camshaft position sensor and the crankshaft position sensor, to determine the optimal timing for the engine. It then sends signals to the camshaft phases to adjust the timing as needed. The PCM continuously monitors engine operating conditions and makes adjustments to the VVT system as necessary to optimize engine performance. 77. What is the DLC and where is it found in modern vehicles? DLC stands for Data Link Connector, which is a standardized 16-pin diagnostic connector used in modern vehicles. The DLC is typically located under the dashboard on the driver's side of the vehicle and provides access to the vehicle's computer systems for diagnostic and testing purposes. It allows a technician to connect a scan tool or diagnostic equipment to the vehicle's computer to retrieve diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and other information related to the vehicle's operation. Multiple Choice question. Selected the correct answer. 78. Reach, heat range and air gap are all characteristics that affect the performance of which ignition system component? A. Ignition coils. B. Ignition switch. C. Spark plugs. D. Breaker points. 79. Why is the correct spark plug heat range important? The correct spark plug heat range is important because if the heat range is too high, it may cause pre- ignition or detonation, leading to engine damage. On the other hand, if the heat range is too low, the spark plug may foul and become coated in carbon and oil deposits, which can cause misfires, reduced power, and poor fuel economy. The heat range of the spark plug determines how quickly it can transfer heat from the combustion chamber to the engine's cooling system. The heat range is influenced by factors such as the material composition of the electrode, the length of the insulator tip, and the size and shape of the ground electrode. 80. What is spark plug reach? Spark plug reach is the length of the threaded portion of the spark plug that extends into the combustion chamber of the engine. It is important to select the correct spark plug reach to ensure proper fitment and sealing in the cylinder head. Using a spark plug with the incorrect reach can cause poor performance, engine damage, and potentially dangerous conditions such as engine misfire, detonation, or pre-ignition.

Modern ignition cables contain carbon fibre cores that act as a ________ in the secondary circuit to cut down on radio and television interference and reduce spark plug wear. A. Insulator. B. Resistor. C. Semiconductor. D. Heat shield. 84. Explain briefly how an ignition coil operates? An ignition coil is an electrical component that transforms the low-voltage power supply of a vehicle into the high-voltage current required to create sparks in the spark plugs. It is composed of two windings, a primary and a secondary, that are wrapped around a laminated iron core. When the ignition switch is turned on, the PCM sends a signal to the ignition coil, which then charges the primary winding with electrical energy. When the signal is cut off, the magnetic field collapses and a high voltage spark is created in the secondary winding, which is then transmitted to the spark plugs through the distributor or ignition wires. 85. Name the different types of ignition coils below.

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems The induction coil in inductive pickup ignition systems operates on the principles of electromagnetism . A voltage is induced in a conductor when a magnetic field passes over the conductor or when the conductor moves over a magnetic field. The magnetic field is provided by a magnet in the ignition unit, and the rotating trigger wheel provides the required movement through the magnetic field to induce magnetic pulses . As the trigger wheel rotates past the pickup coil, a weak AC signal is induced in the pickup coil. This signal is sent to the ignition module. In early ignition systems, the change in polarity was used as a signal to prepare the ignition coil for another spark plug firing. Fill in the gaps 92. Complete the following statement about Hall-effect ignition systems using the following words. Words: Sensor, Output, Voltage, Reference, Hall-effect, PCM, Ground A typical Hall-effect sensor has three wires connected to it. One wire is the power supply voltage wire. The PCM supplies a reference voltage of 5 to 12 volts, depending on the system. The second wire delivers the output signal from the Hall-effect sensor to the PCM, and the third wire provides a ground for the sensor. Fill in the gaps 93. Complete the following statement about light emitting diode ignition systems using the following words. Words: LED, Phototransistor, Photoelectric, Generated, Module, Pulsating, Interrupter Some early distributor ignition systems relied on photoelectric sensors to monitor engine position. They consisted of an LED , a light-sensitive transistor (photocell), and a slotted disc called an interrupter . As the interrupter rotated between the LED and the phototransistor, pulsating voltage was generated in the phototransistor . This voltage was passed onto the ignition module and was used as the basis for all ignition timing. 94. Describe a waste spark ignition system? A waste spark ignition system is a type of ignition system used in many modern gasoline engines. In this system, each cylinder has its own spark plug, but unlike in a traditional ignition system, each spark plug fires twice per cycle - once during the compression stroke and once during the exhaust stroke. This is achieved by having a single coil that produces high voltage energy to two spark plugs at the same time, one for a compression stroke and one for an exhaust stroke. The spark plug firing during the exhaust stroke is referred to as the "waste" spark, as it does not ignite any fuel mixture but is simply used to discharge any residual electrical energy that remains in the ignition system. The waste spark ignition system is used because it is more efficient and cost-effective to produce a single coil that can fire two spark plugs simultaneously rather than using two separate coils. Additionally, the waste spark ignition system is more reliable and durable as compared to other types of ignition systems, and it can operate well under a variety of driving conditions . Fill in the gaps 95. Complete the following statement about coil-on-plug ignition using the following words.

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems Words: Timing, PCM, Camshaft, Crankshaft, Capacitor, Coil-per-cylinder, Ignition, Programmed In a typical Coil-per-cylinder ignition system, a crankshaft position sensor provides a basic timing signal. This signal is sent to the PCM . The PCM is programmed with the firing order for the engine and determines which coil-per-cylinder should be turned on or off. Some engines require an additional camshaft signal from the camshaft position sensor. On some systems, there is also a capacitor for each bank of coils for radio noise suppression Fill in the gaps 96. Complete the following statement about integrated ignition systems using the following words. Words: Spark, Igniter, ECU, Integrated, Engine, Timing, Sensors, Ignition, Voltage, Distributor, Windings On integrated ignition systems, the engine ECU is programmed so that it provides optimum ignition timing under all operating conditions. It receives information from various sensors that monitor the engine function, calculates the ignition timing and sends a signal to the igniter in the distributor assembly. The igniter triggers ignition coil action so that high voltage is produced by the secondary windings of the ignition coil, resulting in a spark at the spark plug. The integrated ignition system eliminates the need for a distributor and simplifies the ignition system design, resulting in improved reliability and performance. True or False question 97. Symptom-based diagnostic charts focus on a definition of the problem and offer a list of possible causes of the problem. True or False 98. Looking at the diagnostic fault chart below, what are the possible causes for DTC P0122?

AURETR123 Diagnose and Repair Spark Ignition Engine Management Systems Words: Access, Bolts, Connector, Disassembly, Electrical, Fuel, Injectors, Leaks, Lines, Loosen, Opened, Operation, O-rings, Pressure, Pulling, Quick-disconnect, Rail, Reassembling, Reconnect, Regulator, Relieved, Removing, Replacing, Reverse, Vacuum The procedure for removing and replacing the fuel rail, injectors , and pressure regulator varies depending on the vehicle. On some applications, certain components must be removed to gain access to these components. The system must be relieved of any and all pressure before the fuel lines are opened to remove any of the components. Loosen the fuel line clamps on the fuel rail, if so equipped. If these lines have quick - disconnect fittings, grasp the larger collar on the connector and twist in either direction while pulling on the line to remove the fuel supply and return lines. Now, remove the vacuum line from the pressure regulator and disconnect the electrical connectors from the injectors. The fuel rail is now ready to be removed. On some engines, the fuel rail is held in place by bolts ; they need to be removed before pulling the fuel rail free. When disassembling the fuel rail with the injectors and pressure regulator, make sure all O- rings are replaced and lightly coated with engine oil. Assemble the fuel rail in the reverse order as that used for removing . After the rail and injectors are in place and everything connected to them, reconnect the negative battery terminal. Then start the engine and check for fuel leaks at the rail and be sure the engine operation is normal. Fill in the gaps 124. Complete the following statement about replacing a fuel pump using the following words. Words: Bolts, Bend, Compare, Connections, Disconnect, Electrical, Installed, Labelled, Leaks, Negative, Properly, Pump, Removing, Replace, Terminal Before removing the fuel pump, disconnect the negative battery cable. Then disconnect the electrical connectors on the fuel pump. Now disconnect the fuel lines at the pump. These lines should also be labelled so they are installed correctly on the new pump. Loosen and remove the bolts holding the pump in place. Remove the pump by pushing the pump up until the bottom is clear of the bracket. Swing the pump out to the side and pull it down to free it from the rubber fuel line coupler. Compare the replacement pump with the old one. When inserting the new pump back into its bracket, be careful not to bend the bracket. If the fuel was removed from the tank, replace it. Make sure all electrical connections are reconnected and that all fuel lines and hoses are properly fastened and tightened. Then reconnect the negative terminal at the battery. Start the engine and check all connections for fuel leaks .
