FUEL SYSTEM (FA20)
PRECAUTIONS
1. Precautions before work
(1) Before performing the work related to the fuel system, perform the fuel spill prevention procedure and disconnect the negative terminal from the battery. (Refer to
)
(2) Be sure not to perform the work related to the fuel system near open flames. Also be sure not to smoke during the work.
(3) Keep rubber and leather parts away from gasoline.
2. Fuel spill prevention procedure
CAUTION:
·Perform this procedure when the engine coolant temperature is 60°C {140°F} or less.
·Always perform the fuel spill prevention procedure before removing the fuel system parts.
·Since a small amount of residue pressure exists in the fuel line after the fuel spill prevention procedure, prevent the fuel from splashing when disconnecting the fuel line.
·Always perform the fuel spill prevention procedure before removing the fuel system parts.
·Since a small amount of residue pressure exists in the fuel line after the fuel spill prevention procedure, prevent the fuel from splashing when disconnecting the fuel line.
(1) Remove the relay block cover UPR.
(2) Remove the fuel pump fuse from the engine compartment relay block.

(3) Start the engine.
(4) Turn the ignition to OFF after the engine stalls by itself.
(5) Crank the engine again and check that it does not start.
(6) Remove the fuel tank cap to release the pressure in the fuel tank.
(8) Install the fuel pump fuse.
(9) Install the relay block cover UPR.
3. Fuel system (quick type A)
(1) When disconnecting the fuel tube connector (quick type A), adhere to the following precautions.
(a) Release the two claws in the retainer of fuel tube connector and push down the retainer as shown in the figure to disconnect the fuel tube connector from the pipe.

(b) If the fuel tube connector is seized on the pipe, hold the pipe and push/pull the fuel tube connector to release it, and then disconnect the fuel tube connector.
CAUTION:
·Before starting the work, remove the foreign matters such as dirt on the fuel tube connector.
·Since the fuel tube connector seals the fuel tube connector and pipe with the O-ring, pay special attention to the damage and foreign matters on the connection.
·Never use any tools.
·After the fuel tube is disconnected, protect the connection with a vinyl bag.
·If the fuel tube connector is seized on the pipe, push and pull the fuel tube connector to release it, and then pull out it.

: 350 to 500 kPa {4.0 to 5.0 kgf/cm2} {51 to 72 psi}
(5) Fuel pressure gauge removal
(a) Be careful not to splash gasoline and remove the fuel pressure gauge.
(b) Using the hose clamp, connect the fuel hose.
Standard value:
Standard value:
Tightening torque=1.3N·m
{
13kgf·cm}
{1.0ft·lbf}
2. Fuel pressure check (high pressure side)

(3) Start the engine and check the value in [Data monitor] → [Fuel Rail Pressure] at idling.
Standard value
: 3.5 to 4.5 MPa {35.7 to 45.9 kgf/cm2} {507.5 to 652.5 psi}
3. D-4S inspection (power balance) active test
(1) Connect the SSM3 to the DLC.
(2) Start the engine, select [Active Test] → [D-4S (power balance)] according to the screen display and select [Port injection] or [Cylinder injection].
(3) ‘Check the idle state after the injection to the executed cylinder of [#1 to #4] is stopped.
Criteria
: The idle speed shall vary.
CAUTION:
Only one cylinder can be tested at a time and multiple cylinders shall not be tested.
