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.
WARNING: Follow the "General Precautions" before working on the fuel system. Refer to General Precaution .
WARNING: Battery acid and battery acid fumes are extremely dangerous and can cause severe burns and explosion. To help reduce the risk of personal injury:
  • Wear appropriate goggles and protective clothing.
  • Always properly ventilate the area where the service is being performed.
  • Never allow battery fluid to come in contact with skin, eyes, fabrics, or painted surfaces.
  • To avoid arcing, remove the negative (-) battery cable first and attach the negative (-) battery cable last.
  • If acid contacts eyes, skin or clothing, immediately flush with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
WARNING: The fuel system (fuel pump, high pressure fuel lines, fuel rail, injectors) contains 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 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.
  1. Disconnect the battery or batteries. Refer to Battery Disconnect .
  2. Remove the air cleaner lid and air inlet connection air ducts.
    CAUTION: Cap or wrap the air inlet ducts with suitable material to avoid dirt or contaminants from entering the air inlet system or engine.
  3. Clean the area around the fuel temperature sensor.
  4. Disconnect the harness connector from the fuel temperature sensor (2).
