5. Install fuel tube and fuel injector assembly to intake manifold.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to let tip of injector nozzle come in contact
with other parts.

Tighten mounting bolts in two steps in numerical order shown
in figure.
6. Connect injector sub-harness.
7. Install intake manifold collector (upper and lower). Refer to EM-
19, "INTAKE MANIFOLD COLLECTOR" .
8. Install fuel sub-tube on rear end of intake manifold collector (lower).
9. Connect fuel feed hose (with damper).

Handling procedure of O-ring is the same as that of fuel damper and fuel sub-tube.

Insert fuel damper straight into fuel sub-tube.

Tighten mounting bolts evenly in turn.

After tightening mounting bolts, make sure that there is no gap between flange and fuel sub-tube.
10. Connect quick connector between fuel feed hose and centralized under-floor piping connection with the
following procedure:
a. Check the connection for damage and foreign materials.
b. Align connector with tube, then insert connector straight into tube until a click is heard.
c. After connecting quick connector, use the following method to
make sure it is full connected.

Visually confirm that the two retainer tabs are connected to
connector.

Pull tube and connector to make sure they are securely con-
nected.
d. Install quick connector cap to quick connector connection.

Install quick connector cap with arrow on surface facing in
direction of quick connector (fuel feed hose side).
CAUTION:
If cap cannot be installed smoothly, quick connector may
have not been installed correctly. Check connection
again.
e. Secure fuel feed hose to clamp.
11. Install in the reverse order of removal after this step.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Check on Fuel Leakage

After installing fuel tubes, make sure there is no fuel leakage at connections in the following steps.
–a) Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines with turning ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). Then check for
fuel leaks at connections.
–b) Start engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at connections.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking on invisible points. 1st step: 10.1 N·m (1.0 kg-m, 7 ft-lb)
2nd step: 23.6 N·m (2.4 kg-m, 17 ft-lb)

CHECKING COMPRESSION PRESSURE
1. Warm up engine thoroughly. Then, stop it.
2. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-51, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" .
3. Disconnect fuel pump fuse to avoid fuel injection during mea-
surement.
4. Remove engine cover with power tool. Refer to EM-19, "
INTAKE MANIFOLD COLLECTOR" .
5. Remove ignition coil and spark plug from each cylinder. Refer to EM-42, "
IGNITION COIL" and EM-43,
"SPARK PLUG (PLATINUM-TIPPED TYPE)" .
6. Connect engine tachometer (not required in use of CONSULT-ll).
7. Install compression gauge with compression gauge adapter
(commercial service tool) onto spark plug hole.

Use compression gauge adapter whose picking up end
inserted to spark plug hole is smaller than 20 mm (0.79 in) in
diameter. Otherwise, it may be caught by cylinder head during
removal.
8. With accelerator pedal fully depressed, turn ignition switch to
“START” for cranking. When gauge pointer stabilizes, read the
compression pressure and engine rpm. Perform these steps to
check each cylinder.
Compression pressure:
Unit: kPa (kg/cm2 , psi) /rpm
CAUTION:
Always use a fully changed battery to obtain specified engine speed.

If engine speed is out of specified range, check battery liquid for proper gravity. Check engine speed
again with normal battery gravity.
