7 Visually and physically inspect the air intake duct for
collapse or restriction and repair if necessary.
Did your inspection reveal a problem requiring repair?
— Verify repair Go to Step 8
8 Inspect the MAF sensor inlet screen for damage or for
the presence of foreign objects which may partially
block air flow through the screen and correct any
problem found.
Did your inspection of the MAF sensor reveal a
condition requiring repair or replacement?
— Verify repair Go to Step 9
9 Start the engine and note the idle quality.
Is a low or unsteady idle being experienced?

for coking and foreign objects.
2. If a problem was found, repair as necessary.
Did your inspection reveal a condition requiring repair?
— Verify repair Go to Step 11
11 1. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the fuel pressure
regulator and inspect the hose for the presence of
fuel.
2. If fuel is present in the vacuum hose, replace the
fuel pressure regulator (refer to
Fuel Metering
System ).
Did the fuel pressure regulator require replacement?
— Verify repair Go to Step 12
12 1. Ignition “ON”, engine “OFF”.
2. Monitor the TP Angle display on the Tech 2 while

“BANK 2 S.T. FUEL TRIM” display on the Tech 2.
Did both values change to near the specified value?
0% Go to Step 22 Go to Step 14
14 1. Perform the “Fuel System Pressure Test”.
2. If Fuel System Pressure Test isolates a problem,
repair as necessary (refer to Engine Fuel or Fuel
Metering System ).
Did the Fuel System Pressure Test isolate a condition
requiring repair?
— Verify repair Go to Step 15
15 1. Ignition “ON”, engine “OFF”.
2. Connect a test light between the harness connector
terminals of canister purge solenoid.
Is the test light on?
