[YES]
Go to Step 4.
[NO]
Go to Step 12.
NOTE: The fuel pressure will drop when the fuel pump stops running, then it should stabilize and remain constant.
4. a. When the vehicle is at normal operating temperature, turn the ignition "ON" to build fuel pressure and observe the measurement on the gauge.
b. Start the Engine and observe the fuel pressure gauge.
c. Did the reading drop by the amount specified after the Engine was started?
[VALUES] 21 - 105 kPa (3 - 15 psi).
[YES]
Go to Step 5.
[NO]
Go to Step 9.
5. Is fuel pressure dropping off during acceleration, cruise, or hard cornering?
[YES]
Go to Step 6.
[NO]
Check for improper fuel.
6. a. Visually and physically inspect the following items for a restriction:
-
The in-pipe Fuel Filter.
-
The fuel feed line.
b. Was a restriction found?
[YES]
Verify repair.

b. Is the action complete?
[YES]
verify repair.
9. a. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the fuel pressure regulator.
b. With the Engine idling, apply 12-14 inches of vacuum to the fuel pressure regulator.
c. Does the fuel pressure indicated by the fuel pressure gauge drop by the amount specified?
[VALUES] 21 - 105 kPa (3 - 15 psi).
[YES]
Go to Step 10.
[NO]
Go to Step 11.
10. a. Locate and repair the loss of vacuum to the fuel pressure regulator.
b. Is the action complete?
[YES]
Verify repair.
11. a. Replace the fuel pressure regulator.
b. Is the action complete?
[YES]
Verify repair.
12. a. Run the fuel pump with the Scan Tool.
b. After pressure has built up, turn off the pump and clamp the supply hose shut with suitable locking pliers.
c. Does the fuel pressure indicated by the fuel pressure gauge remain constant?
[YES]
Go to Step 13.
