Safety Precautions

To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or damage to the fuel injection and ignition system, always observe the following:

Do not touch or disconnect the ignition coils with the power output stages when the engine is running or turning at starting RPM.

The ignition must be turned off before connecting or disconnecting injection and ignition system wiring or tester cables.

If the engine is to be cranked at starting RPM without starting:

- Using the assembly tool (T10118) , disconnect connectors from ignition coils 1 through 6.






If special testing equipment is required during road test, note the following:

Test and measuring instruments must be secured to the rear seat and operated by a second person from this location.

If the vehicle is involved in a collision while testing and measuring equipment is operated from the front passenger seat, the person sitting in that seat could be seriously injured when the airbag deploys.
