Fuel Pressure Relief

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire and personal injury, it is necessary to relieve fuel system pressure before servicing fuel system components. A small amount of fuel may be released when servicing fuel lines or connections. In order to reduce the chance of personal injury, cover fuel line fittings with a shop towel before disconnecting to catch any fuel that may leak out. Place the towel in an approved container when disconnect is complete.

PROCEDURE:

1. Remove fuel filler cap.
2. Disconnect control relay (Fuel Pressure Relay).
3. Crank engine and allow it to stall.
4. Crank engine for an additional 30 seconds.
5. Remove negative battery cable.
6. Place a shop towel under the fuel pressure line.
7. Disconnect fuel pressure line.
