Clean Working Conditions

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Volkswagen Beetle. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When working on the fuel supply/injection system, pay careful attention to the following "5 rules" of cleanliness:

Always clean the connection locations and the area around them before loosening.
Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover them using lint free cloths.
Carefully cover or seal, unpacked components if repairs cannot be performed immediately.
Only install clean components: Remove the replacement parts from their packaging just prior to installing them. Do not use parts that have been stored loose (for example, in a tool box, etc.).
When the system is open: Avoid working with compressed air if possible. Do not move the vehicle unless absolutely necessary.
