4) Start the engine and idle while gear position is neutral.
5) Measure fuel pressure while disconnecting pressure
regulator vacuum hose from intake manifold.
: Is fuel pressure between 226 and 275 kPa
(2.3—2.8 kg/cm2,33—40 psi)?
: Go to next step 6).
: Repair the following items.
Fuel pressure too high
Clogged fuel return line or bent
hose
Fuel pressure too low
Improper fuel pump discharge

Clogged fuel supply line

6) After connecting pressure regulator vacuum hose, mea-
sure fuel pressure.
: Is fuel pressure between 157 and 206 kPa
(1.6—2.1 kg/cm2,23—30 psi)?
: Go to step10T4.
: Repair the following items.
Fuel pressure too high
Faulty pressure regulator

Clogged fuel return line or bent
hose
Fuel pressure too low
Faulty pressure regulator

Improper fuel pump discharge

Clogged fuel supply line
WARNING:
Before removing fuel pressure gauge, release fuel
pressure.
NOTE:

If fuel pressure does not increase, squeeze fuel return
hose 2 to 3 times, then measure fuel pressure again.

If out of specification as measured at this step, check or
replace pressure regulator and pressure regulator vacuum
hose.
