2. CHECKING THE FUEL PRESSURE
Turn the ignition off.
WARNING: The fuel system is under a constant pressure even with the engine off. Before testing or servicing any fuel system hose, fitting or
line, the fuel system pressure must be released. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury or death.
Install a fuel pressure gauge on the fuel rail.
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, actuate the fuel pump relay control. Observe the fuel pressure gauge.
NOTE: The fuel pressure specification is 407 KPa +/- 34 KPa (59 psi +/- 5 psi).
CAUTION: Stop all actuation tests before continuing.
Select the conclusion that best matches the result of the test:
Fuel pressure is within the stated specification
-
Test complete.
Fuel pressure is below the stated specification
-
Go to 3
Fuel pressure is above the stated specification
-
Replace the fuel filter/pressure regulator.
-
Perform the PCM Verification Test.See: Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Diagnostic Trouble Code Tests and Associated
Procedures/Verification Tests/Powertrain Verification Test
3. RESTRICTED FUEL SUPPLY LINE
Turn the ignition off.
WARNING: The fuel system is under a constant pressure, even with the engine off. Before testing or servicing any fuel system hose, fitting or
line, the fuel system pressure must be released. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury or death.
Raise vehicle on hoist, and disconnect the fuel pressure line at the fuel pump module.
Install special 5/16 fuel line adapter tool #6539 between disconnected fuel line and the fuel pump module.
Attach a fuel pressure test gauge to the T fitting on tool #6539.
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, actuate the fuel pump relay control. Observe the fuel pressure gauge.
NOTE: Fuel pressure specification is 407 KPa +/- 34 KPa (59 psi +/- 5 psi).
CAUTION: Stop all actuation tests before proceeding.
Is the fuel pressure within specification?
Yes
-
Repair or replace fuel supply line as necessary.
-
Perform the PCM Verification Test.See: Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Diagnostic Trouble Code Tests and Associated
