FUEL PRESSURE RELIEF
Caution: To reduce the risk of fire and personal
injury, it is necessary to relieve the fuel system
pressure before servicing the fuel system
components.
Caution: After relieving the fuel system pressure, a
small amount of fuel may be released when
servicing fuel lines or connections. Reduce the
chance of personal injury by covering the fuel line
fitting with a short towel before disconnecting the
fittings. The towel will absorb any fuel that may leak
out. When the disconnect is completed, place the
towel in an approved container.
1. Remove the fuel filler cap.

4. Crank the engine for about 30 seconds.
5. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
FUEL RAIL ASSEMBLY
Removal Procedure
NOTE:
Use care when removing the fuel rail assembly in
order to prevent damage to the injector al connector
terminal and the injector spray tips.
Fitting should be capped and holes plugged during
servicing to prevent dirt and other contaminants from
entering open lines and passage.
Important: An eight-digit identification number is
stamped on side of the fuel injector. Refer to this
number when you service the fuel rail or when a
replacement part is required.
1. Disconnect 4 injector connectors.
2. Lift side-clip up on the fuel rail.
3. Disconnect fuel pressure regulator hose.
4. Disconnect wiring harness from the bands on the
fuel rail.

Do not separate the fuel injectors from fuel rail.
C. If an injector become separated from fuel rail,
injector backup O-ring and injector retainer clip
must be replaced.
D. Drain residual fuel from fuel rail into an
approved container.
7. If removal of fuel pressure regulator is necessary,
Refer to Fuel Pressure Regulator Removal
Procedure.

may take longer than usual due to trapped air in the
fuel system. Check for leak. If fuel leak is observed,
stop engine immediately. Before correcting fuel
leak, be sure to depressurize system again.
