Engine coolant temperature/fuel temperature correlation

26 brands affected · Description from Toyota data.

Key terms: Oxygen sensor: measures oxygen in the exhaust gas · Mass air flow sensor: measures the air going into the engine · Powertrain: engine, transmission and emissions

Safety: This code relates to engine cooling or temperature. Overheating can damage the engine.

1What it means in plain English

This code is in the fuel and air metering range, which includes fuel-pressure and camshaft-timing faults.

2Common causes

  1. Dirty or faulty mass air flow sensor
  2. Vacuum or intake air leak
  3. Weak fuel pump or clogged fuel filter
  4. Faulty fuel injector
  5. Faulty oxygen sensor
  6. Wiring or connector fault

3Can I drive?

Caution · drive with care

Watch the temperature gauge. Stop safely and let the engine cool if the gauge climbs, steam appears, or a red warning light comes on.
