Fuel Leakage Inspection

WARNING: Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and damage. Always carry out the following procedure with the engine stopped.

CAUTION: Connecting the wrong DLC terminal may possibly cause a malfunction. Carefully connect the specified terminal only.




1. Short DLC terminal F/P to body GND using a jumper wire.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON to operate the fuel pump.
3. Pressurize the system this way for at least 5 minutes to be sure of no leakage.
- If there is fuel leakage, inspect for damaged fuel hoses, hose clamps, and fuel pipe sealing surface and replace as necessary.
4. After repair, assemble the system and repeat Steps 1 to 3.
