4.CHECK EXHAUST VALVE TIMING CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE
Check the exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to EM, "Exploded View".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Check intermittent incident. Refer to GI, "Intermittent Incident".
NO >> Replace exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve.
1.CHECK EXHAUST VALVE TIMING CONTROL SOLENOID VALVEI
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Replace exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to EM, "Exploded View".
2.CHECK EXHAUST VALVE TIMING CONTROL SOLENOID VALVEII
