CHECKS: LOW PRESSURE FUEL SUPPLY CIRCUIT
Engines: RHY RHZ
Tools.
[1] Ø 10 mm
low pressure connector: 4215T.
[2] Ø 8 mmlow pressure connector: 4218 T.
[3]Pressure gauge for testing boost pressure: 4073 T Kit 4073 T
Connect the tool [1]between the booster pump and the fuel filter (white mark at "a" on the
fuel supply pipe).
Connect the tool [2]downstream of the diesel injectors, between the high pressure fuel
pump and the fuel filter (green mark at "b"on the fuel return pipe).
WARNING: Any check of pressure downstream of the fuel filter is PROHIBITED.
Checks on pressure:static.
Switch on ignition
For 3 seconds(normal functioning):
Fuel supply pressure shown by the pressure gauge [3] = 1.8 ± 0.4 Bar. Fuel return pressure shown by the pressure gauge [3] = 0.5 ± 0.4 Bar.

XSARA PICASSO CHECKS: LOW PRESSURE FUEL SUPPLY CIRCUIT
Engines: RHY RHZ (continued)
Checks on pressure: dynamic.Engine running, at idle (normal functioning):
Fuel supply pressure shown by the pressure gauge [3] = 2 ± 0.4 Bar. Fuel return pressure shown by the pressure gauge [3] = 0.7 ± 0.4 Bar.
Abnormal functioning
Impossible to start the engine:
Fuel supply pressure less than 0.8 Bar:
Check the low pressure regulator incorporated in the filter (locked open). Check the high pressure pump distribution valve (locked shut).
Check: diesel injector return flow.(Table below)
Uncouple the diesel injector return pipe.
