REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (Continued)

leaks are not present. The component should be
replaced immediately if there is any evidence of deg-
radation that could result in failure.
Never attempt to repair a plastic fuel line/tube or a
quick±connect fitting. Replace complete line/tube as
necessary.
Avoid contact of any fuel tubes/hoses with other
vehicle components that could cause abrasions or
scuffing. Be sure that the fuel lines/tubes are prop-
erly routed to prevent pinching and to avoid heat
sources.
The lines/tubes/hoses are of a special construction.
If it is necessary to replace these lines/tubes/hoses,
use only original equipment type.
The hose clamps used to secure the rubber hoses
are of a special rolled edge construction. This con-
struction is used to prevent the edge of the clamp
from cutting into the hose. Only these rolled edge
type clamps may be used in this system. All other
types of clamps may cut into the hoses and cause
fuel leaks.
Where a rubber hose is joined to a metal tube
(staked), do not attempt to repair. Replace entire
line/tube assembly.
Use new original equipment type hose clamps.
Tighten hose clamps to 2 N´m (20 in. lbs.) torque.
QUICK-CONNECT FITTINGSÐLOW PRESSURE
TYPE
Different types of quick-connect fittings are used to
attach various fuel system components. These are: a
single-tab type, a two-tab type or a plastic retainer
ring type (Fig. 8). Refer to Quick-Connect Fittings in
the Removal/Installation section for more informa-
tion.
CAUTION: The interior components (o-rings, spac-
ers) of quick-connect fitting are not serviced sepa-
rately, but new pull tabs are available for some
types. Do not attempt to repair damaged fittings or
fuel lines/tubes. If repair is necessary, replace the
complete fuel tube assembly.
HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL LINES
CAUTION: The high±pressure fuel lines must be
held securely in place in their holders. The lines
cannot contact each other or other components. Do
not attempt to weld high±pressure fuel lines or to
repair lines that are damaged. Only use the recom-
mended lines when replacement of high±pressure
fuel line is necessary.
High±pressure fuel lines deliver fuel under pres-
sure of up to approximately 45,000 kPa (6526 PSI)
from the injection pump to the fuel injectors. Thelines expand and contract from the high±pressure
fuel pulses generated during the injection process. All
high±pressure fuel lines are of the same length and
inside diameter. Correct high±pressure fuel line
usage and installation is critical to smooth engine
operation.
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN
INSPECTING FOR HIGH±PRESSURE FUEL LEAKS.
INSPECT FOR HIGH±PRESSURE FUEL LEAKS WITH
A SHEET OF CARDBOARD. HIGH FUEL INJECTION
PRESSURE CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY IF
CONTACT IS MADE WITH THE SKIN.
FUEL DRAIN TUBES
These rubber tubes are low±pressure type.
Some excess fuel is continually vented from the
fuel injection pump. During injection, a small amount
of fuel flows past the injector nozzle and is not
injected into the combustion chamber. This fuel
drains into the fuel drain tubes (Fig. 9) and back to
the tee banjo fitting, which is connected to the same
line as the overflow valve, which allows a variable
quantity to return to the fuel tank. The overflow
valve is calibrated to open at a preset pressure.
Excess fuel not required by the pump to maintain the
minimum pump cavity pressure is then returned
through the overflow valve and on to the fuel tank
through the fuel return line.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (Continued)

FUEL HEATER RELAY TEST
The fuel heater relay is located in the Power Dis-
tribution Center (PDC). Refer to RelaysÐOperation/
Testing in Fuel Ingection System section of this
group for test procedures.
FUEL INJECTOR TEST
The fuel injection nozzels, located on the engine
cylinder head, spray fuel under high pressure into
the individual combustion chambers. Pressurized
fuel, delivered by the fuel injection pump, unseats a
spring-loaded needle valve inside the injector, and
the fuel is atomized as it escapes through the injector
opening into the engine's combustion chamber. If the
fuel injector does not operate properly, the engine
may misfire, or cause other driveability problems.
A leak in the injection pump±to±injector high±pres-
sure fuel line can cause many of the same symptoms
as a malfunctioning injector. Inspect for a leak in the
high±pressure lines before checking for a malfunc-
tioning fuel injector.
WARNING: THE INJECTION PUMP SUPPLIES HIGH-
±PRESSURE FUEL OF UP TO APPROXIMATELY
45,000 KPA (6526 PSI) TO EACH INDIVIDUAL INJEC-
TOR THROUGH THE HIGH±PRESSURE LINES. FUEL
UNDER THIS AMOUNT OF PRESSURE CAN PENE-
TRATE THE SKIN AND CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY.
WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES AND ADEQUATE PRO-
TECTIVE CLOTHING. AVOID CONTACT WITH FUEL
SPRAY WHEN BLEEDING HIGH±PRESSURE FUEL
LINES.
WARNING: DO NOT BLEED AIR FROM THE FUEL
SYSTEM OF A HOT ENGINE. DO NOT ALLOW FUEL
TO SPRAY ONTO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WHEN
BLEEDING AIR FROM THE FUEL SYSTEM.
To determine which fuel injector is malfunctioning,
run the engine and loosen the high±pressure fuel line
nut at the injector (Fig. 21). Listen for a change in
engine speed. If engine speed drops, the injector was
operating normally. If engine speed remains the
same, the injector may be malfunctioning. After test-
ing, tighten the line nut to 30 N´m (22 ft. lbs.)
torque. Test all injectors in the same manner one at
a time.
Once an injector has been found to be malfunction-
ing, remove it from the engine and test it. Refer to
the Removal/Installation section of this group for pro-
cedures.
After the injector has been removed, install it to a
bench±mount injector tester. Refer to operating
instructions supplied with tester for procedures.
The opening pressure or ªpopº pressure should be
15,000±15,800 kPa (2175±2291 psi). If the fuel injec-tor needle valve is opening (ªpoppingº) to early or to
late, replace the injector.
FUEL INJECTOR SENSOR TEST
The fuel injector sensor is used only on the fuel
injector for the number±1 cylinder (Fig. 22). It is not
used on the injectors for cylinders number 2, 3, or 4.
To test the sensor, unplug the sensor connector
(Fig. 22) from the engine wiring harness. Check
resistance across terminals. Resistance should be 110
ohms610 ohms at 20ÉC (68ÉF). Replace sensor if
specification cannot be met.
FUEL INJECTION PUMP TEST
The injection pump is not to be serviced or
the warranty may be voided. If the injection
pump requires service, the complete assembly
must be replaced.
Incorrect injection pump timing (mechanical or
electrical) can cause poor performance, excessive
smoke and emissions and poor fuel economy.

protruding from floor pan. Tighten mounting nuts to
5 N´m (46 in. lbs.) torque.
(2) Connect electrical connector.
(3) Before starting the engine, operate the acceler-
ator pedal to check for any binding.
AIR CLEANER ELEMENT
REMOVAL
(1) Remove hose clamp at Mass Air Flow Sensor.
(2) Remove hose from Mass Air Flow Sensor.(3) Loosen 2 clamps holding air cleaner housing
halves together.
(4) Remove left side of air cleaner housing.
(5) Remove element from air cleaner housing.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install a new element in housing.
(2) Position left side of housing.

FUEL DRAIN TUBES
The fuel drain tubes (Fig. 28) are low±pressure
type.
Pull each tube from the injector for removal. Push
on for installation. Clamps are not required for these
tubes.
FUEL FILTER/WATER SEPARATOR
The fuel filter/water separator is located in the
engine compartment on the right side near the shock
tower. (Fig. 29).
The fuel filter/water separator assembly contains
the fuel filter, fuel heater element, and fuel drain
valve (Fig. 29).
DRAINING WATER FROM FILTER BOWL
Moisture (water) collects at the bottom of the filter/
separator in a plastic bowl. Water entering the fuel
injection pump can cause serious damage to the
pump.Note that the bulb will be illuminated for
approximately 2 seconds each time the key is
initially placed in the ON position. This is done
for a bulb check.
