FUEL PRESSURE CHECK
1. Remove fuel pump relay module. See Repair,
Multiport Fuel Injection Relay
In order to check the fuel pressure it is necessary to
first depressurise the fuel system as follows:
2. Start and run engine.
3. When sufficient fuel has been used to cause fuel
line pressure to drop, injectors will become
inoperative, resulting in engine stall. Switch off
ignition.
WARNING: Under normal operating
conditions the multiport fuel injection
system is pressurised by a high pressure
fuel pump, operating at up to 2.3 to 2.5 bar. When
engine is stationary pressure is maintained within
system. To prevent pressurised fuel escaping and
to avoid personal injury it is necessary to
depressurise multiport fuel injection system
before any service operations are carried out.
4. Disconnect battery negative lead. .
NOTE: Fuel at low pressure will remain in
system. To remove low pressure fuel,
place absorbent cloth around fuel pipe at
the filter during disconnection.
5.
Connect the pressure gauge on the outlet from
the filter, located on the chassis under the right
rear wheel arch.
If vehicle has not been run there will be a small
amount of residual pressure in fuel line. The
depressurising procedure must still be carried out
before disconnecting any component within the
fuel system.
6. Reconnect the battery and turn the ignition to
position II while observing the pressure gauge.
Results
Expected reading 2,39-2,672 kgf/cm
Pressure drop-max 0.7 kgf/cm in one minute.

The spilling of fuel is unavoidable during this
operation. Ensure that all necessary precautions
are taken to prevent fire and explosion.

If pressure is low check that filter is not blocked
and pump is operating satisfactorily. Then
recheck pressure. If pressure is still low renew
regulator. See Repair, Fuel Pressure
