Fuel System Inspection

  1. Check the fuel pressure
    1. Check the fuel for excessive water, alcohol, or other contaminants.
    2. Install a fuel pressure gage.
    3. Inspect fuel pressure with normal idle status.

      Specification:  338~348 kpa (3.38~3.48 bar)

    4. Is fuel pressure within the specified value?

    YES 

    • Go to next step as below.

    NO 

    Condition Possible Cause Suspected Area
    Fuel Pressure too low Clogged fuel filter Fuel filter
    Fuel leak on the fuel-pressure regulator that is assembled on fuel pump Fuel Pump (Fuel Pressure Regulator)
    Fuel Pressure too High Sticking fuel pressure regulator Fuel Pump (Fuel Pressure Regulator)
  2. Check the fuel line pressure
  1. Stop the engine.
  2. Check that the fuel pressure change.

    Specification:  After engine stop, the fuel pressure is to be maintained at least 5 minutes

  3. is it within the specification value?

YES 

NO 

Condition Possible Cause Suspected Area
Fuel pressure is slowly lowered leakage from Injector Injector
Fuel pressure is sharply lowered Fuel Pump (Check valve is stuck open) Fuel Pump
