(p) After checking fuel pressure, disconnect the negative (-)
terminal cable from the battery and carefully remove the
SST and fuel tube connector to prevent gasoline from
splashing.
SST 09268-41047, 09268-45014
(q) Reconnect the No.1 fuel pipe (fuel tube connector).
CAUTION:
Perform connecting operations of the tube connector
(quick type) after observing the precautions (See page
SF-1).
(r) Surely install the hose clamp to the fuel filter with ºclickº
sound.
(s) After installing the clamp, check that the clamp is fixed by
pulling up to the clamp.
(t) Reconnect the negative (-) terminal cable to the battery.
(u) Check for fuel leaks.
3. REMOVE REAR SEAT CUSHION
4. REMOVE FLOOR SERVICE HOLE COVER
5. DISCONNECT FUEL PUMP & SENDER GAUGE CON-
NECTOR
6. INSPECT FUEL PUMP RESISTANCE
Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals
4 and 5.
Resistance: 0.2 - 3.0 W at 20°C (68°F)
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the fuel pump.
7. INSPECT FUEL PUMP OPERATION
Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 4 of
the connector, and the negative (-) lead to terminal 5. Check
that the fuel pump operates.
NOTICE:

These tests must be done quickly (within 10 seconds)
to prevent the coil burning out.

Keep the fuel pump as far away from the battery as
possible.

Always do the switching at the battery side.

INSPECTION
1. INSPECT INJECTOR INJECTION
CAUTION:
Keep injector clear of sparks during the test.
(a) Purchase the new No.1 fuel pipe and take out the fuel
tube connector from its pipe.
Part No. 23801-20070
(b) Connect SST (hose) and fuel tube connector to the fuel
filter outlet.
SST 09268-41047
CAUTION:
Preform connecting operations of the fuel tube connector
(quick type) after observing the precautions (See page
SF-1).
HINT:
Use the vehicle fuel filter.
(c) Install the grommet and O-Ring to the injector.
(d) Connect SST (union and hose) to the injector, and hold
the injector and union with SST (clamp).
SST 09268-41047
(e) Put the injector into a graduated cylinder.
HINT:
Install a suitable vinyl hose onto the injector to prevent gasoline
from splashing out.
(f) Connect the TOYOTA hand-held tester to the DLC3.
(g) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the TOYOTA hand-
held tester main switch ON.
NOTICE:
Do not start the engine.
(h) Select the ACTIVE TEST mode on the TOYOTA hand-
held tester.
(i) Please refer to the TOYOTA hand-held tester operator's
manual for further details.

(b) When connecting the union bolt on the high pressure pipe
union, observe the following procedures:
(1) Always use 2 new gaskets.
(2) Tighten the union bolt by hand.
(3) Tighten the union bolt to the specified torque.
Torque: 29 N´m (300 kgf´cm, 21 ft´lbf)
(c) When connecting the flare nut on the high pressure pipe
union, observe the following procedures:
(1) Apply a light coat of engine oil to the flare nut, and
tighten the flare nut by hand.
(2) Using SST, tighten the flare nut to specified torque.
SST 09023-12700
NOTICE:
Do not rotate the fuel pipe, when tightening the flare nut.
Torque: 28 N´m (285 kgf´cm, 21 ft´lbf)
HINT:
Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.81 in.).
(d) Observe the following 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.
(e) Install the injector to the delivery pipe and intake manifold
as shown in the illustration.

(3) When the connector and the pipe are stuck, pinch
the retainer between the hands, 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.
(g) Observe these precautions when connecting the fuel
tube connector (quick type).
(1) Do not reuse the retainer removed from the pipe.
(2) Must use hands without using tools when to remove
the retainer from the pipe.
(3) Check if there is any damage or foreign objects on
the connected part of the pipe.
(4) Match the axis of the connector with axis of the pipe,
and push in the connector until the retainer makes
a ºclickº sound. In case that the connections is tight,
apply little amount of new engine oil on the tip of the
pipe.
(5) After having finished the connection, check if the
pipe and the connector are securely connected by
pulling them.
(6) Check if there is any fuel leakage.
(h) Observe these precautions when handling nylon tube.
(1) Pay attention not to turn the connector with force
when connecting them.

(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.
Before installing the injector, must apply spindle oil
or gasoline on the place where a delivery pipe or an
intake manifold touches an O-ring of the injector.
