Fuel Pump Flow

  1. Turn ignition off. Disconnect fuel return line at pressure regulator. Connect a section of test hose to return line at pressure regulator. Place other end of test hose in 2-quart (approximate) graduated container.
  2. Activate fuel pump by turning ignition on. Run fuel pump for 30 seconds. Measure volume of fuel flow and fuel pressure drop. Minimum acceptable volume is 1.9 pts. (0.9L); maximum allowed fuel pressure drop is 2.8 psi (0.2 kg/cm2 ). If fuel volume or pressure drop does not meet specification, replace fuel pressure regulator.
