1Check Fuel Pressure (Refer to Section 6E1 for details).
1) Release fuel pressure from fuel feed line.
2) Install fuel pressure gauge.
3) Check fuel pressure by repeating ignition switch
ON and OFF. See Fig. 1.
Is fuel pressure then 160 – 210 kPa (1.6 – 2.1 kg / cm

pressure retained for 1 minute after fuel pump is
stopped at Step 1?Normal fuel pressure.Go to Step 3.
31) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating
temperature.
2) Keep it running at specified idle speed.

CONTENTS
CAUTION:
BE SURE TO USE UNLEADED FUEL ONLY. USE OF LEADED AND / OR LOW LEAD FUEL CAN RESULT
IN ENGINE DAMAGE AND REDUCE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FUEL SYSTEM
The main components of the fuel system are fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel filter and fuel level gauge and it includes
three lines; fuel feed line, fuel return line and fuel vapor line.
For the details of fuel vapor flow, refer to Section 6E “ENGINE AND EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM”.
FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY (WITH FUEL LEVEL
GAUGE)
The fuel pump assembly consists of fuel pump and fuel level gauge.
For structure and operation of the fuel pump, refer to Section 6E.
