Air bleeding
1. Ignition switch is turned to the ON position for 15 seconds.
2. Ignition switch is turned to the OFF position.
3. The above operation is repeated 5 times.
Note: If the air bleeding work is insufficient then it could
lead to faults in the engine. Therefore, the procedures
after starting the engine should always be implemented.
Water drain
A warning lamp will light up if water above the specified
volume collects in the sedimenter. In such cases, drain
out the water by performing the following operations:
1. Draining with fuel filter drain plug. a. Set a container at the tip of the plastic hose.
b. Loosen the air bleeding plug and the drain plug.
c. Discharge the water.
d. Tighten the drain plug after discharging the water.
e. Tighten the air bleeding plug to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 3 N ⋅m(0.3 kg ⋅m/26 lb in)
f. Ignition switch is turned ON for 15 seconds check for fuel leakage.

6C-10 FUEL SYSTEM (4JK1/4JJ1)
Fuel System Check
Description
Conforms to a fuel leak. Engine acceleration raises fuel
pressure and which increases the leak.
Leak could be in the following pipes and locations.
• Between injectors and fuel rail.
• Between fuel rail and fuel supply pump.
• Between fuel supply pump and fuel filter.
• Between fuel filter and fuel tank.
• Between pressure limiter and fuel cooler.
• Between fuel cooler and fuel tank.
• Between injector over flow and leak off pipe.
Diagnostic Aids
Check the following items.
• Air in the fuel line
• Clogged fuel filter
• Fuel pipe malfunction (Crushing, breakage,
clogging, disconnection, etc.)
• Fuel cooler malfunction (Crushing, breakage,
clogging, disconnection, etc.)
• Fuel tank malfunction
• Injector malfunction
• Fuel supply pump malfunction
• Pressure limiter malfunction
An intermittent may be caused by a poor connection,
rubbed-through wire insulation or a wire broken inside
the insulation. Check for poor connections or a
damaged harness.
Inspect the ECM harness and connector for imprope
r
mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged
terminals, poor terminal-to-wire connection, and
damaged harness.
ECU may set a DTC, if there is adequate air in fuel line.

Removal
1. Detach the drain hose on the lower part of the fuel
filter or the drain plug, loosen the air bleed plug,
and drain the fuel from the fuel filter.
2. Detach the water-in-fuel switch harness.
3. Turn the element case counterclockwise to detach, and remove the filter element.
4. Replace the O-ring and confirm the snap-fit position, and fit a new filter element inside the
element case.
NOTE
It is strongly advisable to use the ISUZU/GM genuine
fuel filter for replacement.
