Inspection & Repair
Make the necessary adjustments, repairs, and part replacement if excessive wear or damage is discovered during
inspection.
SYSTEM CIRCUIT
VISUAL CHECK
Check the main fuses and the glow indicator for damage.
Replace the part(s) if required.
GLOW TIMER
The glow timer is initially activated by the starter switch.
Thereafter, signals from the thermoswitch reach the glow
timer to control the glow plug relay operation time.
The thermoswitch and timer unit also act to protect the
battery in the event the starter key is engaged for an
excessively long time.
GLOW TIMER OPERATION
1. Disconnect the lead wires at the thermoswitch.
2. Connect a voltmeter between the glow plug and
ground.
3. Turn the starter switch from “OFF” to “ON”.
The engine must be stopped.
4. Note the time the glow indicator remains on.
If the glow indicator remains on for approximately 1~6
seconds (4JG2T Engine model) or 3.5 seconds (4JA1,
4JB1T Engine model), the glow timer “ON” time is
normal.
If the glow indicator does not remain on for
approximately 1~6 seconds or 3.5 seconds, trouble in
the glow timer or, the glow relay, is indicated.
5. Return the starter switch to “OFF”.
GLOW RELAY
The glow relay is located near the fuse box in the engine
compartment.
Use an ohmmeter to measure the resistance between
terminals No. 3 and No. 4.
If the measured value is outside the specified range, the
glow relay must be replaced.

THERMO SWI TCH/THERMO SENSOR
The thermo switch or thermo sensor are located on the
water outlet pipe.
Use a circuit tester to check the thermo switch for
continuity.

QOS II Preheating System
General Description
QOS II preheating s ystem f eatur es a quick-on glow plug with therm ometer c ontr ol of the glowing time and the af ter glow
time function.
The system consists of a controller, indicator lamp, thermoswitch, relay, and glow plug (4pcs).
With the employment of the thermoswitch, the glow time changes according to the engine coolant temperature, thus
allowing optimum starting conditions to be obtained.

3) Burning-out of glow plug
When only one line is burned out, it has no effect on the start up of the engine. Even if one line is burned out,
judging from the characteristics of the glow plug, the impressed voltage will change only slightly. Therefore, no
judgment can be made by normal testing while the glow plug is installed. In order to check for disconnections and
burn-outs, the glow plugs will have to be removed from the connectors and checked one by one for continuity.
Engine Warmi ng-Up System
General Description
The engine warm-up system is a device which changes the openning of the throttle valve for intake in accordance with
the engine rpm, controls the amount of the intake air, and changes the air ratio which is supplied to the cylinder. The
device is also provided with such functions as to measure the amount of heat capacity, to close the exhaust throttle
valve to raise the exhaust pressure, and to accelerate the rise in compression and temperature, and the increase of
fuel.
Operation of each device when warming-up switch is ON position.

is switched over from “ON” to “OFF”. Then measure
the clearance between the idle stopper bolt (A) and
control lever (B).
Standard clearance mm (in) 5.0 - 7.8 (0.2 - 0.3)
If the clearance is out of the range, the switch must be
adjusted.
