5. Observe the fo!lowing’ precautions when removing and
installing the injectors.
(a) Never reuse a O-ring.
(b) When placing an O-ring on the injector, use care care
not to damage it in any way.
(c) Lubricate the O-ring with spindle oil or gasoline
before installing - never use engine, gear or brake oil.
Install the injector to the delivery pipe and cylinder head as
shown in the figure.
‘NOTE: Install the spacer with the black ring side facing
upward.
Check that there are no fuel leaks after performing any
maintenance on the fuel system.
(a) With engine stopped, turn the ignition switch ON.
(b) Short circuit the fuel pump check terminal +B and FP
of the check connector with the service wire.
CHECK CONNECTOR LOCATION:
See pages FI-110, 111
(c) When the fuel return hose is pinched, the pressure
within the high pressure line will rise to about 4 kg/
cm (57 psi, 392 kPa). In this state, check to see that
there are no leaks from any part of the fuel system.
CAUTION: Always pinch the hose. Avoid bending as
it may cause the hose to crack.

2. The most frequent cause of problems is simply a bad don-
tact in wiring connectors. Always make sure that connec-
tions are secure.
When inspecting the connector, pay particular attention to
the following points:
(a) Check to see that the terminals are not bent.
(b) Check to see that the connector is pushed in com-
pletely and locked.
(c) Check to see that there is no signal change when the
connector is slightly tapped or wiggled.
3. Sufficiently troubleshoot for other causes before replac-
ing the ECU. The ECU is of high quality and it is expensive.
