General Information
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Nissan Titan XD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- The following procedure contains measurement steps and specifications regarding the engines fuel system components.CAUTION: To avoid possible engine and system damage or performance issues:
- Brush away all dirt and debris from the area prior to opening any fuel, air intake, exhaust, cooling, aftertreatment or other engine system.
- To avoid contamination, any open engine system ports must be closed immediately with clean care caps or an appropriate covering.
- Do not allow any debris to fall into the engine.
- Do not allow any chemical cleaners to enter the engine or any open systems during the cleaning process.
- The purpose of this test is to check for leaks from the high-pressure fuel system joints. The High-Pressure Fuel System Leak Test raises rail pressure to 200, 000 kPa (2, 040 kg/cm 2
, 29, 000 psi).

WARNING:- The fuel system (fuel pump, high pressure fuel lines, fuel rail, injectors) contain very high pressure fuel. To avoid the risk of personal injury or fire:
- Do not loosen any fittings while the engine is running.
- Wait at least 10 minutes after shutting down the engine before loosening any fittings in the high-pressure fuel system to allow pressure to decrease to a lower level.
- Wear appropriate eye protection and protective equipment as high-pressure fuel spray can penetrate the skin.
- Never smoke or allow sparks or flames (such as pilot lights, electrical switches, or welding equipment) in the work area. Never allow diesel fuel to spill onto a hot exhaust manifold which can cause a fire.
- Do not inspect for leaks while the test is running.
