WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2001 Mazda Protege, 2001 Mazda Millenia, 2001 Mazda MX-5 Miata, 2001 Mazda MPV, and 2001 Mazda 626. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Using mechanics wire, secure each fuel injector to fuel rail. Disconnect fuel injector connectors. Remove fuel rail assembly from intake manifold. See REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION article. Reconnect fuel lines to fuel rail. Locate underhood DLC-1 in left side of engine compartment.
- Connect a fused jumper wire between underhood DLC-1 terminals F/P and GND. See Fig 1 . Turn ignition on. Tilt injectors about 60 degrees and check injector nozzles for fuel leaks. Fuel leakage should be less than one drop every 2 minutes. If fuel leakage is present, replace injector.
