Precaution for Multiport Fuel Injection System or Engine Control SystemINFOID:0000000003531474
• Before connecting or disconnecting any harness connector for the
multiport fuel injection system or ECM:
Turn ignition switch to “OFF” position.
Disconnect negative battery terminal.
Otherwise, there may be damage to ECM.
• Before disconnecting pressurized fuel line from fuel pump to injec-
tors, be sure to release fuel pressure.
• Be careful not to jar components such as ECM and mass air flow
sensor.
Precaution for HosesINFOID:0000000003531475
HOSE REMOVAL and INSTALLATION
• To prevent damage to rubber hose, do not pry off rubber hose with
tapered tool or screwdriver.
• To reinstall the rubber hose securely, make sure of hose insertion
length and clamp orientation. (If tube is equipped with hose stop-
per, insert rubber hose into tube until it butts up against hose stop-
per.)
HOSE CLAMPING
• If old rubber hose is re-used, install hose clamp in its original posi-
tion (at the indentation where the old clamp was). If there is a trace
of tube bulging left on the old rubber hose, align rubber hose at
that position.
• Discard old clamps; replace with new ones.

PRECAUTIONS
• After installing leaf spring clamps, apply force to them in the direc-
tion of the arrow, tightening rubber hose equally all around.
Precaution for Engine OilsINFOID:0000000003531476
Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer. Try to avoid direct skin contact
with used oil.
If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner as soon as possible.
HEALTH PROTECTION PRECAUTIONS
• Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils, particularly used engine oils.
• Wear protective clothing, including impervious gloves where practicable.
• Do not put oily rags in pockets.
• Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly underpants, with oil.
• Heavily soiled clothing and oil-impregnated footwear should not be worn. Overalls must be cleaned regu-
larly.
• First aid treatment should be obtained immediately for open cuts and wounds.
• Use barrier creams, applying them before each work period, to help the removal of oil from the skin.
• Wash with soap and water to ensure all oil is removed (skin cleansers and nail brushes will help). Prepara-
tions containing lanolin replace the natural skin oils which have been removed.
• Do not use gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, gas oil, thinners or solvents for cleaning skin.
• If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice without delay.
• Where practical, degrease components prior to handling.
• Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye protection should be worn, for example, chemical goggles or face
shields; in addition an eye wash facility should be provided.
Precaution for Air ConditioningINFOID:0000000003531477
Use an approved refrigerant recovery unit any time the air conditioning system must be discharged. Refer to
ATC-150, "
HFC-134a (R-134a) Service Procedure" for specific instructions.
