Fuel Line
                              NOTE
    ○The gauge needle will fluctuate. Read the pressure at
     the average of the maximum and minimum indications.

• Turn   the ignition switch off.
  If the fuel pressure is much higher than specified, replace
    the fuel pump because the fuel pressure regulator in the
    fuel pump have been clogged or stuck.
    If the fuel pressure is much lower than specified, check
    the following.
      Fuel Line Leakage (see Fuel Injector Fuel Line Inspec-
      tion(17-67))
      Amount of Fuel Flow (see Fuel Flow Rate Inspection(3
      -44))
•   After above checks, measure the fuel pressure again.
•   Remove the fuel pressure gauge, hoses and adapter.
•   Install:
      Fuel Hose (see Fuel Hose Replacement(2-19))
      Fuel Tank (see Fuel Tank Installation(3-59))
•   Start the engine and check for fuel leakage.

                             WARNING
    Fuel is flammable and explosive under certain con-
    ditions and can cause severe burns. Be prepared
    for fuel spillage; any spilled fuel must be completely
    wiped up immediately. When the fuel hose is dis-
    connected, fuel spills out from the hose and the
    pipe because of residual pressure. Cover the hose
    connection with a piece of clean cloth to prevent
    fuel spillage.

                              NOTE
    ○Be sure the battery is fully charged.
