8.
Following the diagram (see
Figure 1), install the plug and
fuel line/rail adapter as shown. Remove the fuel rail and
injectors.
9.
Install the mounting tabs and regulator adapter onto the
fuel rail using the supplied fasteners. A small amount of
Blue Loctite 247 is recommended on all fasteners.
10. Using the factory 6mm bolts, attach the regulator to the
regulator adapter.
11. Lubricate the injector O-rings and seal rings (on intake
manifold) with clean engine oil. To prevent damage to the
O-rings, install the injector in the fuel rail first, then install
the rail assembly into the intake manifold.
12. Install and properly torque retainer nuts to 12N/m (8.7lb/ft).
13. Install the fuel line, sealing washers and pulsation damper
in the original configuration. Torque the pulsation damper
to 22N/m (16lb/ft).
14. Connect the vacuum line and fuel hose to the fuel
pressure regulator. Torque the banjo bolt on the fuel filter
to 33N/m (25lb/ft) and reconnect the battery. Check to
ensure all fittings are tight and all hoses are properly
routed and connected.
15. Turn the ignition switch on, but do not operate the starter.
After the fuel pump has run for approximately two sec-
onds, the fuel pressure in the fuel line will rise. Repeat this
two or three times, then check for any possible fuel leaks.
Torque specs:
• Mounting tabs and fuel pressure regulator 12N/m
(8.7lb/ft) 12N/m, (8.7lb/ft)
• Fuel pulsation damper: 22N/m (16lb/ft)
NOTE: Make sure that the factory composite
rail spacers are in place on the
mounting studs before installing the
rail assembly down onto them.
NOTE: The smallest of the three O-rings is to
be used for the regulator adapter.
Use a small amount of clean engine
oil to lubricate the O-rings before
installation.
