Rules of Cleanliness



Rules Of Cleanliness

When working on the fuel supply/injection system, pay careful attention to the following 6 rules for ensuring maximum cleanliness:
- Thoroughly clean all unions and the adjacent areas before disconnecting.
- Place parts that have been removed on a clean surface and cover them over. Do not use fluffy cloths.
- Carefully cover over or seal opened components if the repair cannot be completed immediately.
- Only install clean components:
Only unpack replacement parts immediately prior to installation.
Do not use parts that have been stored loose (e.g. in tool boxes etc.).
- When the system is open:
Do not work with compressed air if this can be avoided.
Do not move vehicle unless absolutely necessary.
- Electrical connectors:
Protect against dirt and moisture when disconnected.
Make sure they are dry before re-connecting.
