Caution: Wrap a shop towel around the fuel pressure connection in order to reduce
the risk of fire and personal injury. The towel will absorb any fuel leakage
that occurs during the connection of the fuel pressure gage. Place the towel
in an approved container when the connection of the fuel pressure gage
is complete.
- Install the fuel pressure gage. Refer to
Fuel Pressure Gage Installation and Removal
.
- Energize the fuel pump by using the scan tool.
- Place the bleed hose of the fuel pressure gage into an approved gasoline
container.
- Bleed the air out of the fuel pressure gage.
- Observe the reading on the fuel pressure gage.
Is the fuel pressure within the specified range?
| 301-347 kPa
(44-50 psi)

- Use 2 jumper wires from the J 35616
in
order to connect the fuel injector to the J 39021
Fuel Injector Tester test leads.
- Connect the J 39021
to
B+ and to ground.
- Set the amperage supply selector switch on the fuel injector tester to
the Balance Test 0.5-2.5 amp position.
- Energize the fuel pump by using the scan tool.
- Record the fuel pressure indicated by the fuel pressure gage after the
fuel pressure stabilizes. This is the 1st pressure reading.
- Energize the fuel injector by depressing the Push to Start Test button
on the fuel injector tester.
- Record the fuel pressure indicated by the fuel pressure gage after the
fuel pressure gage needle has stopped moving. This is the 2nd pressure reading.
- Repeat step 1 through step 6 for each fuel injector.
- Subtract the 2nd pressure reading from the 1st pressure reading for one
fuel injector. The result is the pressure drop value.
- Obtain a pressure drop value for each fuel injector.
- Add all of the individual pressure drop values. This is the total pressure
drop.
- Divide the total pressure drop by the number of fuel injectors. This is
the average pressure drop.
Does any fuel injector have a pressure drop value that is higher or lower
than the average pressure drop by the specified value?
| 10 kPa (1.5 psi)

Notice: Do not repeat any portion of this test before running the engine in
order to prevent the engine from flooding.
Re-test any fuel injector that does not meet the specification. Refer to the
procedure in step 7.
Does any fuel injector still have a pressure drop value that is either higher
or lower than the average pressure drop by the specified value?
| 10 kPa (1.5 psi)
