6. Reposition the fuel hose clamp (3) at the fuel injection pump.
7. Remove the fuel hose (1) from the return pipe and injection pump.
8. Remove the fuel hose (4) from the fuel injection fuel feed manifold and injection pump.




9. Loosen the left fuel rail fuel feed pipe fittings (1).




10. Remove the left fuel rail fuel feed pipe.

Note: Be careful not to damage any mating surfaces.

11. Remove the fuel injection pump. Refer to Fuel Injection Pump Removal (76. Fuel Injection Pump Removal).

Preparing The Fuel Injection Pump

1. Hold the fuel pump by the drive gear in a vice with copper jaw liners.
2. Loosen the gear nut until the nut is even with the end of the gear shaft.
3. Remove the gear from the tapered shaft of the injection pump.
4. Separate the injection pump and adapter by removing the 3 bolts and spacers.
5. Inspect the O-ring for damage on the pump adapter and replace, if necessary. Lubricate the O-ring with clean engine oil.
6. Clean all mating surfaces.
