Fuel Pressure Release
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Dodge Ram Wagon, 1995 Dodge Ram Van, 1995 Dodge Pickup, 1995 Dodge Dakota, and 1995 Dodge Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
ALWAYS relieve pressure before disconnecting any fuel injection-related components. DO NOT allow fuel to contact engine or electrical components.
- Turn ignition off. Disconnect negative battery cable. Slowly open fuel tank cap to release pressure in tank. Remove fuel rail pressure test port cap. Obtain fuel pressure gauge/hose assembly from Fuel Pressure Gauge Set (5069).
- Place open end of fuel pressure gauge/hose assembly in an approved gasoline container. Connect other end of pressure gauge/hose assembly to test port. As fuel pressure gauge/hose is tightened onto fuel rail pressure test port, fuel pressure will bleed-off into container.
WARNING:
Always relieve fuel pressure before disconnecting any fuel injection-related component. DO NOT allow fuel to contact engine or electrical components.
