High Pressure Fuel Pump Removal/Installation: Notes

WARNING:

• Highly pressurized fuel may spray out if the fuel line is cut. Due to the following dangers occurring with a fuel spray, always complete the "FUEL LINE SAFETY PROCEDURE " to prevent the fuel from spraying.
  • Fuel may cause irritation if it comes in contact with skin and eyes.
  • If fuel ignites and causes a fire, it may lead to serious injury or death, and damage to property and facilities.
• A person charged with static electricity could cause a fire or explosion, resulting in death or serious injury. Before draining fuel, make sure to discharge static electricity by touching the vehicle body.

CAUTION:

• Do not disassemble the high pressure fuel pump.
• Do not damage the sealing surface or the lock part of the fuel pipe.
