PRECAUTION
1. BEFORE WORKING ON FUEL SYSTEM, DISCON-
NECT NEGATIVE (±) TERMINAL CABLE FROM BAT-
TERY
HINT:
Any diagnostic trouble code retained by the ECM will be erased
when the battery negative (±) terminal cable is removed from
the battery.
Therefore, if necessary, read the diagnostic trouble code(s) be-
fore removing the negative (±) terminal cable from the battery.
2. DO NOT SMOKE OR WORK NEAR AN OPEN FLAME
WHEN WORKING ON FUEL SYSTEM
3. KEEP GASOLINE AWAY FROM RUBBER OR LEATH-
ER PARTS
4. MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS
(a) Precaution when the connecting gauge.
Use battery as the power source for the timing light, etc.
(b) In the event of engine misfire, these precautions should
be taken.
(1) Check proper connection of battery terminals, etc.
(2) Handle high±tension cords carefully.
(3) After repair work, check that the ignition coil termi-
nals and all other ignition system lines are recon-
nected securely.
(4) When cleaning the engine compartment, be espe-
cially careful to protect the electrical system from
water.
(c) Precautions when the handling heated oxygen sensors.
(1) Do not allow oxygen sensor to drop or hit against an
object.
(2) Do not allow the sensor to come into contact with
water.
5. IF VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH MOBILE RADIO SYS-
TEM (HAM, CB, ETC.)
If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communication system,
refer to the precaution in the IN section.
6. AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
(a) Separation of the engine oil dipstick, oil filler cap, PCV
hose, etc. may cause the engine to run out of tune.
(b) Disconnection, looseness or cracks in the parts of the air
induction system between the throttle body and cylinder
head will cause air suction and cause the engine to run
out of tune.

7. ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
(a) Before removing SFI wiring connectors, terminals, etc.,
first disconnect the power by either turning the ignition
switch OFF or disconnecting the negative (±) terminal
cable from the battery.
HINT:
Always check the diagnostic trouble code before disconnecting
the negative (±) terminal cable from the battery.
(b) When installing the battery, be especially careful not to in-
correctly connect the positive (+) and negative (±) cable
terminals.
(c) Do not permit parts to receive a severe impact during re-
moval or installation. Handle all SFI parts carefully, espe-
cially the ECM.
(d) Do not be careless during troubleshooting as there are
numerous transistor circuits and even slight terminal con-
tact can further troubles.
(e) Do not open the ECM cover.
(f) When inspecting during rainy weather, take care to pre-
vent entry of water. Also, when washing the engine
compartment, prevent water from getting on the SFI parts
and wiring connectors.
(g) Parts should be replaced as an assembly.
(h) Care is required when pulling out and inserting wiring con-
nectors.
(1) Release the lock and pull out the connector, pulling
on the connectors.
(2) Fully insert the connector and check that it is locked.
(i) When inspecting a connector with a volt/ohmmeter.
(1) Carefully take out the water±proofing rubber if it is
a water±proof type connector.
(2) Insert the test probe into the connector from wiring
side when checking the continuity, amperage or
voltage.
(3) Do not apply unnecessary force to the terminal.
(4) After checking, install the water±proofing rubber on
the connector securely.
(5) Use SST for inspection or test of the injector or its
wiring connector.

8. FUEL SYSTEM
(a) When disconnecting the high pressure fuel line, a large
amount of gasoline will spill out, so observe these proce-
dures:
(1) Disconnect the fuel pump connector.
(2) Start the engine. After the engine has stopped on
its own, turn the ignition switch OFF.
(3) Put a container under the connection.
(4) Slowly loosen the connection.
(5) Disconnect the connection.
(6) Plug the connection with a rubber plug.
(7) Reconnect the fuel pump connector.
(b) When connecting the flare nut or union bolt on the high
pressure pipe union, observe these procedures:
(1) Union Bolt Type:
Always use a new gasket.
(2) Union Bolt Type:
Tighten the union bolt by hand.
(3) Union Bolt Type:
Tighten the union bolt to the specified torque.
Torque: 29 N´m (300 kgf´cm, 22 ft´lbf)
(4) Flare Nut Type:
Apply a light coat of engine oil to the flare and tight-
en the flare nut by hand.
(5) Flare Nut Type:
Using SST, tighten the flare nut to the specified
torque.
SST 09631±22020
NOTICE:
Do not rotate the fuel pipe, when tightening the flare nut.
Torque:
30 N´m (310 kgf´cm, 22 ft´lbf) for using SST
38 N´m (387 kgf´cm, 28 ft´lbf)
HINT:
Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.81 in.).

(c) Observe these precautions when removing and installing
the injectors.
(1) Never reuse the O±ring.
(2) When placing a new O±ring on the injector, take
care not to damage it in any way.
(3) Coat a new O±ring with spindle oil or gasoline be-
fore installing±never use engine, gear or brake oil.
(d) Install the injector to the delivery pipe and intake manifold
as shown in the illustration.
Before installing the injector, must apply spindle oil or gas-
oline on the place where a delivery pipe or an intake man-
ifold touches an O±ring of the injector.
(e) Observe these precautions when disconnecting the fuel
tube connector (quick type):
(1) Check if there is any dirt like mud on the pipe and
around the connector before disconnecting them
and clean the dirt away.
(2) Be sure to disconnect with hands.
(3) When the connector and the pipe are stuck, push
and pull the connector to free to disconnect and pull
it out. Do not use any tool at this time.
(4) Inspect if there is any dirt or the likes on the seal sur-
face of the disconnected pipe and clean it away.
(5) Prevent the disconnected pipe and connector from
damaging and mixing foreign objects by covering
them with a vinyl bag.
(f) Observe these precautions when connecting the fuel
tube connector (quick type):
(1) Check if there is any damage or foreign objects on
the connected part of the pipe.
(2) Match the axis of the connector with axis of the pipe,
and push in the connector until the connector
makes a ºclickº sound. In case the connections is
tight, apply little amount of new engine oil on the tip
of the pipe.

(3) After having finished the connection, check if the
pipe and the connector are securely connected by
pulling them.
(4) Check if there is any fuel leakage.
(g) Observe these precautions when handling nylon tube.
(1) Pay attention not to turn the connected part of the
nylon tube and quick connector with force when
connecting them.
(2) Pay attention not to kink the nylon tube.
(3) Do not remove the EPDM protector on the outside
of the nylon tube.
(4) Must not close the piping with the nylon tube by
bending it.
(h) Check that there are no fuel leaks after doing mainte-
nance anywhere on the fuel system.
(1) Connect a LEXUS hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(2) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the LEXUS
hand±held tester main switch ON.
NOTICE:
Do not start the engine.
(3) Select the ACTIVE TEST mode on the LEXUS
hand±held tester.
(4) Please refer to the LEXUS hand±held tester opera-
tor 's manual for further details.
(5) If you have no LEXUS hand±held tester, connect
the positive (+) and negative (±) leads from the bat-
tery to the fuel pump connector.
(See page SF±6)
(6) Check that there are no leaks from any part of the
fuel system.
(7) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(8) Disconnect the LEXUS hand±held tester from the
DLC3.
(9) Start the engine.
NOTICE:
Keep cranking the engine until the air is removed from the
fuel line.
(10) After the engine starts, check again that there are
no fuel leaks.
