Installation Procedure
Fuel/gasoline vapors are highly flammable. A fire could occur if an ignition source is present. Never drain or store gasoline or diesel fuel in an open container, due to the possibility of fire or explosion. Have a dry chemical (Class B) fire extinguisher nearby.
Wrap a shop towel around the fuel pressure connection in order to reduce the risk of fire and personal injury. The towel will absorb any fuel leakage that occurs during the connection of the fuel pressure gauge. Place the towel in an approved container when the connection of the fuel pressure gauge is complete.
Clean all of the following areas before performing any disconnections in order to avoid possible contamination in the system:
- The fuel pipe connections
- The hose connections
- The areas surrounding the connections
- Relieve the fuel system pressure. Fuel Pressure Relief
- Disconnect the quick connect coupling of the fuel feed pipe from the fuel pump. Use a shop towel in order to catch any remaining fuel that may leak. Metal Collar Quick Connect Fitting Service
Install the CH-37287-1A adapter (2) between the fuel feed pipe and the fuel pump.
