battery.
(b) Do not smoke or work near open flame when working on the fuel system.
(c) Keep gasoline away from the rubber or leather parts.
2. DISCHARGE FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE
CAUTION:

Do not disconnect any parts of the fuel system pres-

sure.

Even after discharge the fuel pressure, place a shop
rag over fittings as you separate them in order to re-
duce risk of fuel spray on yourself or in the engine
compartment.
(a) Disconnect the engine wire No. 3 (battery negative termi-
nal).
(b) Remove the circuit opening relay from the engine room
relay block.
(c) Connect the engine wire No. 3 (battery negative terminal).
Torque: 5.4 NVm (55 kgfVcm, 48 in.Vlbf)
(d) Start the engine. After the engine has stopped on its own,
turn the ignition switch OFF.
HINT:
There is a case that DTC P0171 (system to lean) is output.
(e) Check that the engine does not start.
(f) Remove the fuel tank cap, then let the air out of the fuel
tank.
(g) Disconnect battery negative terminal.
(h) Reinstall the circuit opening relay.
3. FUEL SYSTEM
(a) When disconnecting the high fuel pressure line, a large
amount of gasoline will spill out. So observe these proce-
dures.
(1) Work in order to prevent gasoline from spilling out.
(2) Disconnect the fuel pump tube (see page 11-20).
(3) Drain the fuel remaining inside the fuel pump tube.
