Removal Procedure
- Remove the heater outlet pipe. Refer to
Heater Outlet Hose Replacement
.
- Remove the fuel filter assembly. Refer to
Fuel Filter Assembly Replacement
.
- Remove the turbocharger coolant outlet pipe. Refer to
Turbocharger Coolant Hoses/Pipes Replacement
.
- Disconnect the engine wiring harness electrical connector (1) from the fuel injection fuel rail fuel pressure sensor wiring harness extension.
- Remove the fuel injection fuel rail fuel pressure sensor wiring harness extension clip (3) from the wiring harness bracket.
- Remove the wiring harness bracket bolts and bracket (2).
- Prior to removing the fuel injection fuel feed pipes, use compressed air to blow any debris from between the
injector line and fittings. Wipe the fittings clean of debris.
- Spray lithium grease, GM P/N 12346293 or equivalent, between the fuel injector line and fittings to assist in containing any debris during removal.
Notice: DO NOT use compressed air to clean debris from the fuel injector inlet
after the fuel line is removed. Using compressed air can allow debris to enter
the fuel injector inlet and damage the fuel injector.
- Remove the fuel injection fuel feed pipes.
- Loosen the right fuel rail fuel feed pipe fitting (4) at the fuel rail.
- Remove the fuel injection fuel rail bolts.
- Remove the fuel rail.
Installation Procedure
Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in the Preface section.
- Position the fuel injection fuel rail to the intake manifold.
- Install the fuel injection fuel rail bolts.
Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 25 N·m (18 lb ft).
- Tighten the right fuel rail fuel feed pipe fitting (4) at the fuel rail.
Tighten
Tighten the fittings to 41 N·m (30 lb ft).
Notice: Ensure proper torquing of the fuel injector line. An under-torqued
fuel injector line will not seal properly and an over-torqued fuel
injector line may damage the fuel injector fitting. An improperly sealed or
damaged fuel injector line or fuel injector fitting will cause a fuel leak.
- Install the fuel injector pipes.
Tighten
Tighten the fittings to 41 N·m (30 lb ft).
- Position the wiring harness bracket (2) and install the bolts.
Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 24 N·m (18 lb ft).
- Connect the engine wiring harness electrical connector (1) to the fuel injection fuel rail fuel pressure sensor wiring harness extension.
- Install the fuel injection fuel rail fuel pressure sensor wiring harness extension clip (3) to the wiring harness bracket.
