Fuel Pressure Sensor
WARNING:
Observe the following precautions when working on fuel systems: No sparks, open flames or smoking. Avoid inhaling and swallowing fuel. Avoid eye and skin contact with fuel. Pour fuels only into suitable and appropriately marked containers. Wear protective clothing. Failure to observe these precautions may result in fire, explosion, property damage, and serious or fatal injury.
WARNING:
High-pressure fuel lines deliver fuel under extreme pressure from the injection pump to the injectors. This maybe as high as 1350 bar (19,580 psi). Use extreme caution when inspecting for high-pressure fuel leaks. Inspect high-pressure fuel leaks with a sheet of cardboard. Wear safety goggles and adequate protective clothing when servicing fuel system. Fuel under this amount of pressure can penetrate skin causing serious or fatal injury.
NOTE:
The installation of the pressure sensor must be performed out of vehicle so that the sensor can be tightened properly.
- Install the fuel rail pressure sensor and new seal. Tighten to 14 N.m (123 lbs. in.).
- Install the fuel rail.
- Connect rail sensor electrical connector.
- Connect negative battery cable.
- Start engine, allow to warm, turn engine off and inspect for leaks.
- Install engine cover.
