REMOVAL
1. Release residual pressure from the fuel line to prevent fuel spilling.
WARNING: Cover the hose connection with rags to prevent splashing of fuel that could be caused by residual pressure in the fuel line.
2. Remove the delivery pipe with the fuel injector and pressure regulator.
INSTALLATION
1. Install a new grommet and O-ring to the injector.
