Fuel Pressure Release: Service and Repair
WARNING: Do not smoke, carry lighted tobacco or open flame of any type when working on or near any fuel related component. Highly
flammable mixtures are always present and may be ignited, resulting in possible personal injury.
CAUTION: Fuel supply lines will remain pressurized for long periods of time after engine shut down. This pressure must be relieved before
servicing of the fuel system is begun. A valve is provided on the throttle body for this purpose. Remove the air cleaner and relieve system
pressure by using Rotunda pressure gauge tool T80L-9974-A or equivalent and drain the system through the drain tube.
1. Remove fuel tank cap.
2. Remove cap from schrader valve on fuel supply manifold, and attach EFI and CFI fuel pressure gauge tool No. (T80L-9974-B or equivalent).
3. Direct gauge drain hose into approved fuel storage container, and depress pressure release button on fuel pressure gauge to bleed off fuel pressure.
