Checking fuel pressure

Hi,

I don't have a video for this specific vehicle. However, I have a link that explains how it's done, a video showing it being done on another vehicle, and the directions specific to your vehicle.

Here is the "how-to" link:

Here is a video showing how it is done:

If you look at the pics below, they are the directions specific to your vehicle. There are two methods identified. I feel method B would be easier for you, but you can make that decision. Additionally, you will need a fuel pressure gauge. If you don't have one, most auto parts stores will lend one to you.

Take a look through everything and let me know if you have questions or if I can help in any way.

Take care,

Joe

Hi,

To check fuel pressure, you're right. There is no Schrader. On this vehicle, it is necessary to remove the fuel supply line, add a T between it and the fuel rail, and then the last leg of the T is where the gauge attaches.

If the spark plugs are wet, it could be an injector or injectors. However, I wouldn't think all would fail at the same time. Are all spark plugs getting wet? If it is only one or two, an injector may be leaking causing the issue. However, to determine if that is the issue, we would either need to check fuel pressure drop off with a gauge or remove the injectors and test them.

Here is a link showing how to test an injector:

If you look at the attached pic, I added a pressure test kit. I circled what you need and highlighted where the Schrader is located. Basically, it is spliced into the fuel supply.

Let me know if that helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Hi,

You are very welcome. Let me know how things turn out for you or if I can help in any way.

Hi,

Yes and no. You have to remove what is called the intake collector which is the upper portion of the intake. The actual intake manifold that bolts to the engine is not removed.

If you look at pic 1 below, I highlighted the collector, so you have a better understanding.

The remaining pics are the directions for removing the injectors.

Let me know if this helps.

Take care,

Joe
