Fuel Delivery System
Fuel pressure inspection
1) Relieve fuel pressure in fuel feed line referring to “FUEL
PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE” in Section 6-1.
2) Disconnect fuel feed hose from (3) delivery fuel feed pipe (1).
3) Connect special tools and hose (2) between fuel feed hose
and fuel feed pipe as shown in figure, and clamp hose
securely to ensure no leaks occur during checking.
Special tool
(A) : 09912-58441
(B) : 09912-58431
(C) : 09912-58490
4) Check that battery voltage is above 11 V.
5) Turn ignition switch ON to operate fuel pump and after 3 sec-
onds turn it OFF. Repeat this 3 or 4 times and then check
fuel pressure.
6) Start engine.
7) Measure fuel pressure at idling.
If measure pressure doesn’t satisfy specification, refer to
“Diagnostic Flow Table B-3” in Section 6-1 and check each
possibly defective part. Replace if found defective.
Fuel pressure specification: CAUTION:
A small amount of fuel may be released when fuel feed
hose is removed. Place container under the fuel feed
hose or fuel feed pipe with a shop cloth so that released
fuel is caught in container or absorbed in cloth. Place
that cloth in an approved container.

8) After checking fuel pressure, remove fuel pressure gauge
(1).
9) Remove fuel pressure gauge, hose and 3-way joint.
10) Connect fuel feed hose and clamp it securely.
11) With engine “OFF” and ignition switch “ON”, check for fuel
leaks.
Fuel pump
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1) Remove filler cap and turn ON ignition switch (2). Then fuel
pump operating sound should be heard from fuel filler (1) for
about 3 seconds and stop. Be sure to reinstall fuel filler cap
after checking.
If above check result is not satisfactory, advance to “DIAG-
NOSTIC FLOW TABLE B-1” in Section 6-1
2) Fuel pressure should be felt at fuel return hose (1) for 3 sec-
onds after ignition switch ON.
If fuel pressure is not felt, advance to “DIAGNOSTIC FLOW
TABLE B-3” in Section 6-1. CAUTION:
As fuel feed line is still under high fuel pressure, make
sure to release fuel pressure according to following pro-
cedures.
Place fuel container under joint.
Cover joint with rag and loosen joint nut slowly to
release fuel pressure gradually.
CAUTION:
When fuel filler cap is removed in any procedure, work
must be done in a well-ventilated area, keep away from
any open flames and without smoking.

INSTALLATION
For installation, reverse removal procedure and note the follow-
ings.
•Use new O-ring.
•Apply thin coat of gasoline to O-ring to facilitate installation.
•Tighten fuel pressure regulator (1) bolts to specified torque.
Tightening torque

leaks around fuel line connection.
Fuel injector
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1) Using sound scope (1) or such, check operating sound of
injector when engine is running or cranking.
Cycle of operating sound should vary according to engine
speed.
If no sound or an unusual sound is heard, check injector cir-
cuit (wire or coupler) or injector.
2) Disconnect connector from injector, connect ohmmeter
between terminals of injector and check resistance.
If resistance is out of specification, replace.
Fuel injector resistance:
14.2 – 14.8 Ω
Ω Ω Ω (at 20°C, 68°F)
3) Connect connector to injector securely.
