If fuel pressure does not remain steady, go to step  30 .
  29. Turn ignition off. With fuel pressure gauge installed, install vacuum gauge to intake manifold. Start engine. While monitoring fuel pressure gauge and vacuum gauge, accelerate and decelerate engine speed. Fuel pressure should increase as vacuum decreases and decrease as vacuum increases.

Record fuel pressure with ignition switch in ON position. If fuel pressure is not within 21 psi (1.5 kg/cm2 ) of maximum pressure for at least 10 seconds, go to next step. If fuel pressure is within 21 psi (1.5 kg/cm2 ) of maximum pressure for at least 10 seconds, and some or all continuous DTCs P1130, P1150, P0171 and P0174 were initially set, go to step  35 .
