7. Remove the fuel injector from the fuel tube using the followingsteps.
a. Spread open and remove the clip.
b. Remove the fuel injector from the fuel tube by pulling straight out.
CAUTION:
• Be careful with remaining fuel that may leak out from fueltube.
• Do not damage injector nozzles during removal.
• Do not bump or drop fuel injectors.
• Do not disassemble fuel injectors.
8. Remove the fuel damper from each fuel tube.
INSTALLATION
1. Install the fuel damper to each fuel tube using the following steps.
a. Apply engine oil to the new O-ring and set it into the cup of the fuel tube.
CAUTION:
• Handle O-ring with bare hands. Never wear gloves.
• Lubricate new O-ring with new engine oil.
• Do not clean O-ring with solvent.
• Make sure that O-ring and its mating part are free of for-eign material.
• When installing O-ring, do not scratch it with tool or fin-
gernails.
• Do not twist or stretch the O-ring.
b. Make sure that the backup spacer is in the O-ring connecting surface of the fuel damper.
NOTE:
The backup spacer is part of the fuel damper assembly.
c. Insert the fuel damper until it seats on the fuel tube. CAUTION:
• Insert straight, making sure that the axis is lined up.
• Do not pressure-fit with excessive force.
d. Install the cap, and then tighten the bolts evenly. • After tightening the bolts, make sure that there is no gap between the cap and fuel tube.

steps.
5. Install the fuel hose assembly. • Insert connectors straight, making su re that the axis is lined up with fuel tube side to prevent O-ring from
being damaged.
• Tighten bolts evenly in several steps.
• Make sure that there is no gap between the flange and fuel tube after tightening the bolts.
CAUTION:
• Handle O-ring with bare hands. Do not wear gloves.
• Lubricate O-ring with new engine oil.
• Do not clean O-ring with solvent.
• Make sure that O-ring and its mating part are free of foreign material.
• When installing O-ring, be careful not to scratch it with tool or fingernails. Also be careful not to
twist or stretch O-ring.
• If O-ring was stretched while it was being att ached, do not insert it quickly into fuel tube.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
After installing the fuel tubes, make sure there are no fuel leaks at the connections using the following steps.
1. Apply fuel pressure to the fuel lines by turning ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). Then check for fuel leaks at the connections.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking on hidden points.
2. Start the engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at the connections. CAUTION:
Do not touch the engine immediately after stopping, as engine becomes extremely hot.
