Fuel pressure regulator and residual
fuel pressure, checking
Requirements
Fuel pump relay OK
Fuel pump OK
Fuel filter OK
Battery voltage at least 11 V
Note:
The fuel pressure regulator regulates the fuel
pressure according to intake manifold pressure.
This ensures that the drop in pressure at the
injectors remains the same throughout all engine
speed and engine load ranges.
WARNING!
Fire hazard! The fuel system is pressurized.
Before loosening hose connections or
opening the test connection (to measure fuel
pressure), place a cloth around the
connection. Then release pressure by
carefully pulling off the hose or cap.

.
To reach the fuel rail, the following steps must be
performed on vehicles with manual transmission
(without secondary air injection). On vehicles
with automatic transmission (with secondary air
injection) are minor differences in the work
procedure.
Several hoses must now be disconnected: - Unscrew bolts on air duct at points indicated (arrows) and remove air
duct.
- Absolute cleanliness must be maintained.

Briefly open screw connection on fuel rail
(supply hose) to release pressure. Use
clean cloth to catch any fuel that leaks
out. Then tighten screw connection again.

Unbolt fuel rail from intake manifold at the
points indicated (see arrows).
