Fuel Meter Cover Assembly
Fuel Meter Cover (TBI):
WARNING: DO NOT remove the four screws securing the pressure regulator to the fuel meter cover. The fuel pressure regulator includes a large spring under heavy compression which, if accidently released, could cause personal injury. Disassembly might also be result in a fuel leak between the diaphragm and the regulator container.
NOTE The fuel meter cover assembly contains the fuel pressure regulator assembly. The regulator has been adjusted at the factory and should only be serviced as a complete assembly.
CAUTION Use care in removing the fuel injectors to prevent damage to the electrical connector terminals, the injector filter, and the fuel nozzle. The fuel injector is serviced as a complete assembly only. Also, since the injectors are electrical components, they should not be immersed in any type of liquid solvent or cleaner as damage could occur.
REMOVE OR DISCONNECT
1. Disconnect electrical connectors to fuel injectors. (Squeeze plastic tabs and pull straight up).
2. Remove long and short meter cover screw assemblies.
3. Remove fuel meter cover assembly.
NOTE DO NOT immerse fuel meter cover (with pressure regulator) in cleaner, as damage to regulator and gasket could occur.
4. Remove fuel meter outlet gasket and pressure regulator seal. Discard old gaskets and seal.
INSPECT
- Inspect for dirt, foreign material and casting warpage.
INSTALL OR CONNECT
1. Install a new pressure regulator seal, fuel meter outlet passage gasket, and cover gasket.
2. Install fuel meter cover assembly.
3. Install attaching screw assemblies, precoated with appropriate locking compound to threads. (Short screws are next to injectors.) Tighten screw assemblies to 3.0 Nm (28.0 lb-in).
4. Reconnect electrical connectors to fuel injectors.
5. With engine "OFF" and ignition "ON", check for leaks around gaskets and fuel line couplings.
