Fuel Pressure Sensor: Service and Repair

FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR







Removal and Installation

WARNING:
- Do not smoke or carry lighted tobacco or open flame of any type when working on or near any fuel-related components. Highly flammable mixtures are always present and can be ignited. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
- Fuel in the fuel system remains under high pressure even when the engine is not running. Before working on or disconnecting any of the fuel lines or fuel system components the fuel system pressure must be relieved to prevent accidental spraying of fuel, which can cause personal injury or a fire hazard.


1. Release the fuel system pressure.
2. Disconnect the battery ground cable.







3. CAUTION: The engine appearance cover is equipped with a noise suppressor. If the noise suppressor becomes separated from the engine appearance cover it must be positioned on the intake manifold prior to installing the engine appearance cover.

Remove the engine appearance cover and the noise suppressor (if detached).

4. Disconnect the fuel pressure sensor electrical connector and vacuum tube.
5. Remove the 2 bolts and the fuel pressure sensor.
- To install, tighten to 5 Nm (44 lb-in).
- Inspect and install a new O-ring seal as necessary.

6. NOTE: Lubricate the O-ring seal with clean engine oil.

To install, reverse the removal procedure.
