Engine Performance Systems
Engine Performance Systems
• Responsible for how the engine runs.
• Complete combustion requires:
–
–
–
–
Correct amount of air
Correct amount of fuel
Mixed in a sealed container
Shocked with the correct amount of heat
Purpose of the Ignition System
• Generate enough heat to ignite mixture.
• Maintain the spark long enough for total
combustion of the fuel.
• Must deliver the spark to each cylinder to
allow combustion to begin at the correct
time.
Firing Order
• To supply spark
at the correct
time, each
cylinder fires in a
specific order
every 720
degrees.
Fuel Systems
• Typical fuel supply system includes:
– Fuel tank, lines, filter, and a pump
• A pressure regulator maintains system
pressure.
• The pressure generates the spraying force to
inject the fuel.
Fuel Injection - TBI
Fuel Injection - CPI
Fuel Injection - PFI
Fuel Injection - GDI
Air Induction System
Emission Control Systems
• Reduce pollutants and environmentally
damaging substances.
• Smog irritates eyes, nose, and throat.
• Formed when HC and NOx are exposed to
sunlight.
Engine Control Systems
• Primary engine control computer is the
ECM or PCM.
• Based on input, may command a change.
• Monitors system activity for faults.
• Linked to several other modules.
• Share information on the CAN data bus.
On-Board Diagnostic Systems
• OBD I
– Phased in 1988
– Most used flash codes
– DTC represented open, shorted, high resistance,
or outside normal range faults
– Monitored a few systems and had limited DTCs
– Often required a specific scan tool
OBD II
• Designed to ensure emissions remain as low
as possible over life of vehicle.
• Added monitor functions:
–
–
–
–
–
Catalyst efficiency
Engine misfire
Evaporative system
Secondary air system
EGR flow rate
OBD II (cont’d)
•
•
•
•
Basic data parameters and codes.
Monitors effectiveness of emissions system.
Every part that affects emissions is checked.
MIL illuminated if emissions exceed 150%
of allowable standard for that vehicle.
• PCM uses EEPROM for updates.
Data Link Connector (DLC)
• Standardized
• Vehicles may have
more than one DLC.
• Must be located near
steering column.
System Operation
• Closed Loop Mode
– PCM receives and processes information and
adjusts outputs, resulting in new input data
• Open Loop Mode
– Used when the engine is cold
– PCM does not respond to feedback information
– Makes decisions based on programming
OBD II Monitoring Capabilities
•
•
•
•
•
Monitors to detect failing systems.
Illuminates the MIL before the failure.
Performs tests on subsystems.
Some monitors run continuously.
Other monitors only run under certain
operating conditions, called enable criteria.
OBD II Trip
Catalyst Efficiency Monitor
• Uses two oxygen
sensors.
• Converter stores
oxygen when lean.
• Efficiency is
measured by
oxygen storage.
Misfire Monitor
• Unburned fuel enters
exhaust.
• Can destroy catalyst.
• Uses CKS sensor.
• Most OBD II systems
allow about 2% rate.
Type A Misfires
•
•
•
•
•
Checked for at 200-rpm increments.
A misfire between 2% and 20% is excessive.
PCM may shut off fuel injector(s).
If injector(s) not shut off, the MIL flashes.
If injector(s) are shut off, the MIL
illuminates.
Type B Misfires
• Checked over a 1000-rpm period.
• If misfire exceeds 2% to 3%, it is
considered excessive.
• May not damage catalyst but will increase
emissions.
• A pending DCT set.
• MIL on if fault detected on second trip.
Fuel System Monitoring
• The PCM monitors and adjusts fuel delivery
based on oxygen sensors feedback.
• Short term fuel trim (STFT) makes minor
injector pulse-width adjustments.
• Long term fuel trim (LTFT) is set by the
effectiveness of STFT.
• The fuel trim monitor is continuous.
Heated Oxygen Sensor Monitor
• Rich to lean and lean to rich response times.
• Report time of sensors gives an indication of
heater circuit operation.
• All HO2S monitored once per drive cycle.
• The monitor will vary fuel delivery to check
HO2S response.
EGR System Monitoring
• Some systems monitor EGR temperature.
• Other systems use the MAP sensor data.
• Monitors EGR operation, flow rates, and
opens and shorts in the circuit.
Evaporative Emission
System Monitor (EVAP)
• Tests the ability of the fuel tank to hold
pressure.
• Also tests the systems ability to purge
fumes from the charcoal canister.
Enhanced EVAP Systems
•
•
•
•
•
•
In use since 2003.
Detects leaks and restrictions.
Checks EVAP system integrity.
Performs a vacuum test.
Uses a special fuel filler cap.
Loose or missing filler cap will set an
EVAP code.
Secondary Air Injection
(AIR) System Monitor
• Can be tested by injecting air upstream of
HO2S sensor.
• Many systems inject air into exhaust
manifold during open loop.
• Air then injected into catalytic converter
during closed loop.
Comprehensive
Component Monitor (CCM)
• Continuous monitor.
• Looks at any electronic input that could
affect emissions.
• Monitors sensor range values.
• Checks frequency input rationality.
• Monitors outputs by checking voltage.
MIL
• Must illuminate if an emissions fault is
detected.
• MIL may stay on or blink.
• MIL may go back off but a DTC and freeze
frame are stored.
• If the fault is not detected for 40 key cycles,
the DTC and freeze frame are erased.
OBD II Trouble Codes
• DTCs are standardized
Freeze Frame Data
• PCM takes a snapshot of activity when the
MIL is illuminated.
• Used by PCM for comparison of operating
conditions if the same problem reoccurs.
• Can be useful by technicians.
• Erased if the DTC is erased.
Test Modes
• All OBD II systems have same basic test
modes accessible with an OBD II scan tool.
• Mode 1 – parameter ID (PID) mode
– Allows access to current data values, calculated
values, and system status information
– Some PID values are manufacturer specific
Test Modes (cont’d)
• Mode 2 – freeze frame data access mode
• Mode 3 – access to stored DTCs
• Mode 4 – PCM reset mode
– Resets all DTCs, freeze frames, DTC histories,
monitor test results, and monitor status
• Mode 5 – O2 sensor monitoring test
– Actual O2 sensor outputs during test cycle
– Used for catalyst efficiency monitoring
Test Modes (cont’d)
• Mode 6 – hexadecimal data
– Can be used for non-continuous system
problem identification
• Mode 7 – test results for continuous
monitoring systems
• Mode 8 – bidirectional control request
• Mode 9 – vehicle information request

Serial Data
• PIDs are codes used to request data from
PCM.
• Scan tools request and receive serial data.
• Scan tool PID requests information from a
device on the network.
• Many PIDs are standard but not all are
supported by all manufacturers.
Diagnosing OBD I Systems
• Limited self-diagnostic capability.
• Hard faults (on-demand) occur at time of
self-test.
• Intermittent faults not present at self-test
can store a DTC for a number of key cycles.
• Several different methods to access DTCs.
• Perform a thorough visual inspection.
