Fuel Injectors
- Ensure ignition is off. Disconnect electrical connector at fuel injector. Using ohmmeter, check resistance between electrical terminals on fuel injector. Replace fuel injector if resistance is not within specification. See FUEL INJECTOR RESISTANCE table.
- To check fuel injector volume, remove fuel injector. See FUEL RAILS & FUEL INJECTORS under FUEL SYSTEM in REMOVE/INSTALL/OVERHAUL article. Disconnect fuel hose from fuel filter outlet. Use Delivery Hose (09268-41046) to install fuel injector between fuel filter and fuel pressure regulator. See Fig 1.
- Place fuel injector into a clean graduated container. Place vinyl tube on end of fuel injector to prevent fuel spillage.
- Use scan tool to operate the fuel pump to pressurize the fuel system. See FUEL PRESSURE under FUEL SYSTEM in BASIC TESTING
article.NOTE: Fuel pump may also be operated to pressurize fuel system by applying battery voltage to electrical terminals on fuel pump. For operating of fuel pump, see FUEL PUMP RESISTANCE & OPERATION under FUEL DELIVERY under FUEL SYSTEM.
- Connect Fuel Injector Tester (09842-30070) to fuel injector for 15 seconds. See Fig 2. Measure fuel injector volume. Test each fuel injector 2-3 times. Replace fuel injector if fuel injector volume is not within specification. See FUEL INJECTOR VOLUME SPECIFICATIONS table.NOTE: Ensure difference between fuel injector volume on all fuel injectors is within specification. See FUEL INJECTOR VOLUME SPECIFICATIONS table.
- Disconnect fuel injector tester. Ensure fuel leakage from end of fuel injector is one drop or less per minute. Replace fuel injector if leakage exceeds specification. Remove test equipment.
