High Pressure Pump






High Pressure Pump

The fuel system is under pressure! Before opening the high pressure components of the fuel injection system, the pressure must be reduced to a residual pressure. Refer to => [ High Side Fuel Pressure, Releasing ] Service and Repair.

The high pressure pump can only be removed and installed when the engine is cold.

When installing, make sure that no dirt enters the fuel system.

Catch leaking fuel with a cloth.

Always replace the O-ring and the connection.
