Clean Working Conditions

When working on the fuel supply/injection system, pay careful attention to the following "6 rules" of cleanliness:

Always clean the connection locations and the area around them before loosening.

Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover them using lint free cloths.

Carefully cover or seal unpacked components, if repairs cannot be performed immediately.

Only install clean components: Remove the replacement parts from their packaging just prior to installing them. Do not use parts that have been stored loose (for example, in a tool box, etc.).

When the system is open: Do not work with compressed air. Do not move the vehicle unless absolutely necessary.

In addition, do not allow diesel fuel to drip onto the coolant hoses. If the fuel comes in contact with the hoses, the hoses must be cleaned immediately. Replace any corroded hoses.
