Rules for cleanliness
When working on the fuel supply and injection system, pay careful attention to the following “5 rules”:
t  Thoroughly clean all unions and the adjacent areas before disconnecting.
t  Place parts that have been removed on a clean surface and cover them over. Do not use fluffy cloths!
t  Carefully cover or seal open components if repairs cannot be carried out immediately.
t  Only install clean components: replacement parts should only be unpacked immediately prior to installation. Do not use parts that have been stored loose (e.g. in tool boxes etc.).
t  When the system is open: Do not work with compressed air if this can be avoided. Do not move vehicle unless absolutely necessary.
