Removing

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

• The fuel pressure must be reduced to residual pressure before opening the high pressure area of the fuel injection system. Refer to => [ Releasing Pressure in High Pressure Area ] Releasing Pressure In High Pressure Area.

• 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 escaping fuel with a rag.

• The O-ring must always be replaced.

• High-pressure fuel lines must always be fastened free of tension.

- Reduce fuel pressure in high pressure area. Refer to => [ Releasing Pressure in High Pressure Area ] Releasing Pressure In High Pressure Area.
