+ENGINE - K SERIES KV6, REPAIRS,
Cover - engine acoustic.
2. Position absorbent cloth beneath fuel rail.
WARNING: Fuel vapour is highly flammable
and in confined spaces is also explosive
and toxic. Always have a fire extinguisher
containing foam, CO2 , gas or powder close
at hand when handling or draining fuel.
3. Up to 03MY: Remove nut and bolt securing coil
and position coil aside.
4. Connect adaptor LRT-19-006, to pressure
gauge LRT-19-004 .
5. Remove schraeder valve cap.
6. Connect pressure gauge to fuel rail schraeder
valve.
7. Start engine. Pressure at idle = 3.4 bar. If
pressure is below 3.4 bar, suspect the following
in order: fuel hoses, filter, regulator and pump.
Refit
1. Stop engine.
2. Disconnect pressure gauge LRT-19-006 and
adapter LRT-19-004 from fuel rail.
3. Up to 03MY: Fit and tighten nut and bolt

bar.
8. Release clip, disconnect and plug fuel pressure
regulator vacuum hose.
9. Start engine. Pressure at idle = 3.0 bar ± 0.2
bar.
10. Stop engine. If pressure is out of tolerance
suspect the following in order: fuel hoses,
regulator, filter and pump.
