Warning
The following troubleshooting flow chart contains the fuel system diagnosis and repair
procedures. Read the following warnings before performing the fuel system services:
•Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep
sparks and flames away from fuel.
•Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injury or death
and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete “BEFORE
REPAIR PROCEDURE” and “AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE” described in this manual.
STEP INSPECTION RESULTS ACTION
1 Inspect for following:
•Fuel quality (e.g.: including water
contamination, winter/summer blend)
•Fuel line/fuel filter clogging and/or restriction
•Fuel line leakage
•Intake-air system restriction
•Exhaust system and/or catalyst converter
restriction
•Charge air cooler condition (restriction or
damaged)
•Vacuum leakage

INSTALLATION.)
4. Remove the air cleaner assembly. (L8, LF, and L3 engine models).
5. Remove the under cover.
6. Remove the oil filter and oil cooler component with the cooling hose connected. Position the oil filter and oil
cooler component so that it is out of the way. (L3 engine model (4WD))
7. Remove the solenoid valve assembly with the vacuum hose and the connector connected. Position the
solenoid valve assembly so that it is out of the way. (MZR-CD (RF Turbo) engine model)
8. Remove the release cylinder with the oil pipe connected. Position the release cylinder so that it is out of the
way. (MTX)
