< REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION >
HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP AND FUEL HOSE
 Check that rotation stopper (A) of fuel feed hose contact highpressure fuel pump.
6. Tighten mounting bolts that are temporarily tightened in step 3.
7. Connect harness connector to high pressure fuel pump.
8. Install fuel pump connector protector.
9. Connect harness connector to low fuel pressure sensor.
10. Note the following, and connect quick connector to install fuel feed hose.
a. Check the connection for foreign material and damage.
b. Align center to insert quick connector straightly into fuel tube. NOTE:
The figure shows engine side as an example.
 Insert fuel tube into quick connector until the top spool on fueltube is inserted completely and the second level spool is posi-
tioned slightly below quick connector bottom end.
CAUTION:
 Hold “A” position in the figure when inserting fuel tube
into quick connector.
 Carefully align center to avoid inclined insertion to pre-
vent damage to O-ring inside quick connector.
 Insert until you hear a “c lick” sound and actually feel
the engagement.
 To avoid misidentification of engagement with a similar sound , be sure to perform the next
step.
c. Before clamping fuel feed hose with hose clamps, pull quick connector hard by hand holding “A” position.
Check it is completely engaged (connected) so that it does not come out from fuel feed tube.
d. Install quick connector cap to quick connector connection.  Install so that the arrow mark on the side faces up.
CAUTION:
 Check that quick connector and fuel tube are securely fitinto quick connector cap installation groove.
 If quick connector cap canno t be installed smoothly,
quick connector may have not been installed correctly.
Check connection again.
11. Install in the reverse order of removal.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Check for Fuel Leakage
1. Turn ignition switch “ON” (with the engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check that
there is no fuel leakage at connection points.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking at points out of clear sight.
2. Start the engine. With engine speed increased, check again that there is no fuel leakage at connection
points.

WARNING:
 Be sure to read
EM-4, "
Precaution for Handling High Pressure Fuel System" when working on the
high pressure fuel system.
 Put a “CAUTION: FLAMMABLE” sign in the workshop.
 Be sure to work in a well ventila ted area and furnish workshop with a CO
2 fire extinguisher.
 Never smoke while servicing fuel system. Keep op en flames and sparks away from the work area.
 To avoid the danger of being scalded, never drain engine coolant when engine is hot.

Never reuse fuel feed tube.
4. Remove fuel rail (bank 1) and fuel rail (bank 2).
5. Disconnect harness connector from fuel injectors.
6. Remove fuel injector from cylinder head as per the following: CAUTION:
 Be careful with remaining fuel th at may go out from fuel tube.
 Be careful not to damage in jector nozzles during removal.
 Never bump or drop fuel injector.
 Never disassemble fuel injector.
a. Remove injector holder.
b. Install an injector remover [SST: KV10119600 (—)] (A) to the injector connector side so that cutout (B) of injector remover
faces the injector connector side.
 Hook pawl portion (B) of injector remover [SST: KV10119600(—)] (A) to groove portion (C) of injector.
