Tighten
Tighten the pressure regulator attaching screw to 9.5 N.m (84 lb in).

4. Connect the vacuum hose to the fuel pressure regulator.
5. Connect the fuel return pipe to the fuel pressure regulator.

Tighten
Tighten the fuel return pipe fitting to 33 N.m (24 lb ft).




6. Install the air cleaner resonator bracket.

Tighten
6.1. Tighten the bracket side nut (4) to 10 N.m (89 lb in).
6.2. Tighten the bracket upper nut (3) to 25 N.m (18 lb ft).
