    • Check or replace the fuel pump and fuel delivery line if the fuel pressure is out of the standard.

    Fuel pressure: 

    Standard 

    340 - 400 kPa (3.5 - 4.1 kg/cm2 , 49 - 58 psi)

  7. After inspection, install the related parts in the reverse order of removal.
    CAUTION:
    • Before removing the fuel pressure gauge, release the fuel pressure.
    • Be careful not to spill fuel.
    • Catch the fuel from hoses and tubes using a container or cloth.
    • Check that there is no damage or dust on the quick connector. If necessary, clean the seal surface of the pipe.
