Fuel Pressure Test
Special Tools Required
- Fuel pressure gauge 07406-004000B
- Fuel pressure gauge attachment set 07AAJ-S6MA150
- Relieve the fuel pressure (see FUEL PRESSURE RELIEVING )
- Attach the fuel pressure gauge set and the fuel pressure gauge
- Start the engine, and let it idle
- If the engine starts, go to step 5
- If the engine does not start, go to step 4
- Check to see if the fuel pump is running Listen to the fuel filler port with the fuel fill cap removed The fuel pump should run for 2 seconds when the ignition switch is first turned on
- If the pump runs, go to step 5
- If the pump does not run, do the fuel pump circuit troubleshooting (see FUEL PUMP CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING )
- Read the fuel pressure gauge The pressure should be 330-380 kPa (3 4-3 9 kgf/cm2
, 48-55 psi)
- If the pressure is OK, the test is complete
- If the pressure is out of specification, replace the fuel pressure regulator (see FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR REPLACEMENT ) and the fuel filter (see FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR REPLACEMENT ), then recheck the fuel pressure
