Fuel Meter Body: Service and Repair

REMOVAL
1. Negative battery cable.
2. Relieve fuel system pressure. (Refer to "Fuel Pressure Relief Procedure".)
3. Air cleaner assembly.
4. Electrical connectors to injectors. (Squeeze plastic tabs and pull straight up.)
5. Fuel meter cover (3) and fuel injectors (10).
6. Fuel feed and return lines.
7. Fuel line 0-rings (30, 37) and discard.

IMPORTANT:
- Note locations of nuts, for proper reassembly later. Inlet nut has a larger passage than outlet nut.

8. Fuel inlet and outlet nuts (31, 38) and gaskets (40, 41) from the fuel meter body assembly.

INSTALLATION
1. New throttle body to fuel meter body gasket (22).
- Match cut-out portions in gasket with openings in throttle body.
2. Fuel meter body assembly (21) on throttle body assembly.

IMPORTANT:
- The hardware used to attach the fuel meter body assembly is factory coated with thread locking adhesive. If the fuel meter body assembly is removed for service, inspect the attaching hardware screw threads for thread locking material. If there is not enough thread-locking material (adhesive or compound) on the threads to insure proper relocking, clean the screw threads and apply Loctite 262 or equivalent to the screw threads before reassembly.

3. Fuel meter body-to-throttle body attaching screws (20).

Tighten
- Fuel meter body attaching screws to 4.0 Nm (35 lb.in.).

Tighten
- Inlet nut to 40.0 Nm (30 lb.ft.).
- Outlet nut to 29.0 Nm (21 lb.ft.).

5. New 0-rings (30, 37) on fuel feed and return lines.
6. Fuel lines.

Tighten
- Fuel line nuts to 27.0 Nm (20 lb.ft.).
- Use a back-up wrench on the Throttle body fuel injection unit fuel nuts to prevent them from turning.

7. Fuel injectors (10) and fuel meter cover (3).
8. Electrical connectors to injectors.
9. Tighten fuel filler cap.
10. Negative battery cable.

Tighten
- Turn ignition switch to "ON" position for two seconds, then turn to "OFF" position for ten seconds. Again turn switch to "ON" position, and check for fuel leaks.
