Removal And Installation

NOTE:

The "GSE INJECTOR ADAPTATION" scan tool procedure should always be run after a PCM, fuel injector, fuel rail, high pressure pump or fuel pressure sensor is replaced. The procedures should be in the "Miscellaneous Functions" tab in the PCM. Failure to run the procedures may cause DTCs to set in the PCM.

REMOVAL 

  1. Perform the fuel pressure release procedure. Refer to FUEL DELIVERY, STANDARD PROCEDURE .
  2. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable. If equipped with an Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS), disconnect the IBS connector first before disconnecting the negative battery cable.
  3. Remove the air cleaner body. Refer to BODY, AIR CLEANER, REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .

  4. Thoroughly clean the area around the fuel line nuts to prevent contaminants from entering the fuel system.
  5. Loosen the fuel line nuts (1, 2a) and remove the high pressure fuel line (2b).
    NOTE:

    The high pressure fuel line can be reused if the injection pump and fuel rail are being reused, otherwise the high pressure fuel line must be discarded and replaced.
