Removal Procedure
- Remove the fuel injection pump to fuel feed block fuel hose. Refer to
Fuel Hose Replacement - Fuel Injection Pump to Fuel Feed Block
.
- Remove the air intake pipe. Refer to
Air Intake Pipe Replacement
.
- Disconnect the engine wiring harness extension electrical connector (1) from the fuel pressure regulator.
(wiring harness shown removed for clarity).
- Clean the fuel pressure regulator and high pressure injection pump thoroughly with solvent, such as GM P/N 12377981
(Canadian P/N 10953463) or equivalent.
- Using compressed air, thoroughly blow dry the regulator and pump.
- Remove the fuel pressure regulator TORX® bolts (1) using a T25 TORX®.
- Remove the fuel pressure regulator (2). (fuel lines removed for clarity).
- If dirt or debris is found in the bore or seating surfaces of the fuel injection pump, perform the following:
• | Place a clean rag over the bore on order to collect the excess fuel. |
• | Bump the engine over in order to flush any debris out of the regulator bore. |
Installation Procedure
Important: If the pressure regulator is being re-used, check the O-rings for damage. If the O-rings are damaged, install NEW O-rings.
- Lubricate and install NEW O-rings onto the regulator. Lubricate the O-rings with clean, NEW engine oil.
Important: If the regulator is installed at an angle the O-rings may be damaged, resulting in possible fuel leakage.
- Install the fuel pressure regulator (2).
Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in the Preface section.
- Install the fuel pressure regulator TORX® bolts (1) using a T25 TORX®.
Tighten
