Installation Procedure
Caution: Gasoline or gasoline vapors are highly flammable. A fire could occur
if an ignition source is present. Never drain or store gasoline or diesel
fuel in an open container, due to the possibility of fire or explosion. Have
a dry chemical (Class B) fire extinguisher nearby.
Caution: Wrap a shop towel around the fuel pressure connection in order to reduce
the risk of fire and personal injury. The towel will absorb any fuel leakage
that occurs during the connection of the fuel pressure gage. Place the towel
in an approved container when the connection of the fuel pressure gage
is complete.
Notice: Clean all of the following areas before performing any disconnections
in order to avoid possible contamination in the system:
• | The fuel pipe connections |
• | The areas surrounding the connections |

container.
- Open the bleed valve on the fuel pressure gauge in order to bleed
the air from the fuel pressure gage.
- Command the fuel pump ON with a scan tool.
- Close the bleed valve on the fuel pressure gauge.
- Inspect for fuel leaks.
Removal Procedure
- Place the fuel pressure gage bleed hose into an approved container

Fuel
Pressure Gage to catch any remaining fuel spillage.
