relieVinG fuel systeM pressure.
NOTE!
the following instructions are intended as a guide only. Always adhere to manufacturer’s procedures for relieving system
pressure.
3.1.1.
Before disconnecting the fuel lines to connect adaptors and pressure gauge to fuel system, the fuel system pressure must be relieved,
this will prevent fuel spraying when a joint is disconnected.
3.1.2.
switch off ignition, loosen the fuel tank cap to relieve tank pressure, then re-tighten.
3.1.3.
to relieve fuel pressure, it is necessary to prevent the fuel pump operating, whilst still allowing both injection and ignition systems to
operate.
3.1.4.
the procedure may simply require the fuel pump relay, fuse or electrical supply to be disconnected;
some models have two fuel
pumps - make sure both are disabled.
3.1.5.
once pump(s) is/are disabled, run the engine until it stalls, and then crank over 5 to 10 times after it has stalled.
on some electronic fuel injection systems, removing the fuel pump fuse disables both the fuel pump and the injectors. in this case
refer to manufacturer’s procedure.
WarninG! Do not
assume that pressure in the fuel system has been relieved. When disconnecting, wrap a cloth around the fuel
line fitting to absorb any fuel leakage.

3.2.1.
With the engine off and the fuel system pressure relieved, install the correct adaptor into the fuel system at the point to be tested and

3.2.2.
re-connect the fuel pump(s).
3.2.3.
start engine and allow to idle.
3.2.4.
read the fuel pressure on the gauge and compare to the manufacturer’s specification.
3.2.5.

3.2.6.
Place the end of the clear tube in a suitable container and push the relief button to depressurise the system.
