6.FUEL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING: The fuel system is under a constant pressure (even with the engineoff). Before testing or ser-
vicing any fuel system hose, fitting or line, the fuel system pressure mustbe released. Failure to follow
these instructions can result in personal injury or death.
Install a fuel pressure gauge to the fuel rail.
Start the engine and observe the fuel pressure reading.
NOTE: Fuel pressure specification is 407 KPa +/- 34 KPa (59 psi +/- 5 psi).
Choose a conclusion that best matches your fuel pressure reading.

7.FUEL PRESSURE LEAK DOWN
NOTE: Before continuing visually and physically inspect the fuel delivery system for external leaks or dam-
age. Repair / replace as necessary.
Turn the ignition off.
WARNING: The fuel system is under a constant pressure (even with the engineoff). Before testing or ser-
vicing any fuel system hose, fitting or line, the fuel system pressure mustbe released. Failure to follow
these instructions can result in personal injury or death
Install special tool #6539 (5/16
) or #6631 (3/8) fuel line adapter.
Install the fuel pressure gauge.
Start the engine and allow the fuel system to reach maximum pressure.
Turn the ignition off.
NOTE: Fuel specification is 407 KPa +/- 34 KPa (59 psi +/- 5 psi).
Using special tool #C4390, Hose Clamp Pliers, pinch the rubber fuel line between the fuel pressure gauge and the
engine.
Monitor the fuel pressure gauge for a minimum of 5 minutes.
