INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels incl uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-14, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak-
age at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. Tool number WS39930000 ( – )

• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec-
ified level, if necessary.

2. Install fuel injector (4) to fuel tube (1) with the following proce-
dure:
a. Insert clip (2) into clip groove (F) on fuel injector. • Insert clip so that protrusion (G) of fuel injector matches cut-
out (D) of clip.
CAUTION:
• Never reuse clip. Replace it with a new one.
• Be careful to keep clip from interfering with O-ring. Ifinterference occurs, replace O-ring.
b. Insert fuel injector into fuel tube with clip attached. • Insert it while matching it to the axial center.
• Insert fuel injector so that protrusion (B) of fuel tube matches
cut-out (C) of clip.
• Make sure that fuel tube flange (A) is securely fixed in flange
fixing groove (E) on clip.
c. Make sure that installation is complete by making sure that fuel injector does not rotate or come off.
3. Set fuel tube and fuel injector assembly at its position for installation on cylinder head. CAUTION:
Be careful not to let tip of injector nozzle interfere with other parts.
4. Tighten bolts in numerical order as shown.
5. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.
