Fuel System







Fuel System

Note the following when working on the fuel system:

There is a risk of injury because the fuel is under very high pressure.

Reduce the fuel pressure down to residual pressure before opening high pressure area of the fuel injection system.

To reduce remaining residual pressure, place clean cloth around the connector and carefully loosen connector.

To prevent personal injury and damage to the injection and ignition system, observe the following:

Turn off the ignition before disconnecting and connecting the wiring for the injection and ignition system. This includes tester cables as well.

Wash the engine only when the ignition is turned off.

If the connectors were disconnected and the engine was started, then malfunctions have been stored in the Engine Control Module (ECM) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory: Generate readiness code in Guided Functions using the vehicle diagnostic tester.

Danger of causing damage to the other electronic components when disconnecting the battery.

Complete the steps for disconnecting the battery.

Always turn off the ignition before disconnecting the battery.
