Defect

The clearance between the butterfly valve and the valve case in the engine intake throttle valve is set incorrectly. Carbon deposits from exhaust gas recirculation accumulate on the tip of the valve and cause it to catch on the valve case. As a result, the engine may stall while driving and fail to restart. (This notification supersedes the improvement campaign filed on September 18, 2001 under Notification No. 188. Because the corrective measures taken at that time were insufficient, the scope of the remedy has been revised and expanded.)

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the stopper bolt and nut with corrected parts to widen the clearance of the intake throttle valve.

状況

原動機の吸気絞り弁において、バタフライバルブとバルブケースの隙間設定が不適切なため、バルブ先端に排気再循環ガスのカーボンが堆積して当該バルブがバルブケースと引っ掛かるものがある。そのため、走行中にエンストして再始動できなくなるおそれがある。 (本届出は、平成13年9月18日付け「届出番号188」の改善対策届出において、不具合に対する改善措置の内容が不十分であったため、改善措置の内容を見直し、対象範囲を拡大して、再度対策を行うものである。)

改善措置

全車両、吸気絞り弁の隙間を広げるためストッパボルト・ナットを対策品に交換する。
