Fitting the O-ring and the fuel high pressure hose
1. Apply a little fresh engine oil to the O-ring.
Caution
Ensure that no engine oil gets inside the deliver pipe.
2. Without damaging the O-ring, fit the fuel high pressure hose to
the delivery pipe by twisting it from left to right. Ensure that the
hose is twisted smoothly.
3. If the hose cannot be twisted smoothly, there is a possibility that
it may be biting into the O-ring, so remove the fuel high pressure
hose, and check for any damage to the O-ring. If the O-ring is
undamaged, reinsert it into the delivery pipe and check once
more whether the hose can be turned smoothly.
4. Tighten the mounting bolts for the fuel high pressure hose, to
the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 5.0 ± 1.0 N•m.

GENERAL
Servicing guidelines have been changed because of the changes listed below.
•Avariable valve timing control system (V.V.T.) has been adopted. Because of this, an oil feeder control valve and an intake
cam position sensor have been added.
•Amanifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor has been added.
•An air temperature sensor has been added.
