>>D<< HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL HOSE INSTALLATION

CAUTION

Do not allow any engine oil to enter the fuel rail.
1. Apply a small amount of new engine oil to the O-ring.

2. While turning the high-pressure fuel hose to the right and

left, install it to the fuel rail, while being careful not to
damage the O-ring. After installing, check that the hose
turns smoothly.

3. If the hose does not turn smoothly, the O-ring is probably

being clamped. Disconnect the high-pressure fuel hose and
check the O-ring for damage. Replace if necessary.

4. Re-insert the fuel rail and confirm the hose turns smoothly.
