FUEL PRESSURE INSPECTIONWARNING: Fuel line spills and leaks are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the "Fuel Pressure Release Procedure".
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Install a fuel pressure gauge between the fuel filter and the main fuel hose. (Install clamps as shown.)
3. Connect the negative battery cable.
4. Connect data link connector terminals F/P and GND with a jumper wire.
5. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
6. Measure the fuel pressure.
Fuel pressure: 260-320 kPa (37-46 psi)
7. If not as specified, perform the following inspections.
- Fuel pump maximum pressure.
- Fuel line clogging and restriction.
- Fuel filter clogging and restriction.
- Pressure regulator hold pressure.
