Fuel Pressure Relief
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire and personal injury, it is necessary to relieve the fuel system pressure before servicing fuel system components.
- Remove fuel pump fuse B1 in the Console Fuse Block to avoid possible fuel discharge if an accidental attempt is made to start the engine. See Fig 1 and Fig 2 .
- Loosen fuel filler cap to relieve tank vapor pressure.
- Connect Fuel Pressure Gauge J 34730-1, or equivalent, to fuel pressure connection. Wrap a shop towel around fitting while connecting gage to avoid spillage.
- Install bleed hose into an approved container and open valve to bleed system pressure. Fuel connections are now safe for servicing.
- Drain any fuel remaining in gage into an approved container.
