REMOVAL
WARNING: THE FUEL SYSTEM IS UNDER A CON-
STANT PRESSURE (EVEN WITH THE ENGINE OFF).
BEFORE SERVICING THE CHECK VALVE, FUEL
SYSTEM PRESSURE MUST BE RELEASED (GASO-
LINE POWERED ENGINES ONLY). REFER TO THE
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE PROCEDURE IN
GROUP 14, FUEL SYSTEM.
(1)Diesel Powered Engine:One checkr valve is
used. The valve is located on top of fuel tank module
(Fig. 40) and may be serviced separately.

both batteries.
(b) Remove fuel filler cap and drain fuel tank.
(c) Remove fuel tank. Refer to Fuel Tank Remov-
al/Installation in Fuel System.
(d) The check valve is seated into a rubber
grommet. Remove valve by prying one side upward
and then roll valve out of grommet.
(e) Discard old grommet.
(2)Gasoline Powered Engines:
If equipped with
a 26 or 34 gallon fuel tank, two check valves are used.
One of the valves is permanently mounted to top of
fuel tank (Fig. 41). If replacement of this particular
valve is necessary, fuel tank must be replaced. Refer
to Fuel Tank Removal/Installation in Group 14, Fuel
System. The other check valve is located on top of fuel
pump module (Fig. 41). This valve may be serviced

PTO SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
This Powertrain Control Module (PCM) input is
used only on models equipped with aftermarket
Power Take Off (PTO) units.
OPERATION
The input is used only to tell the PCM that the
PTO has been engaged. The PCM will disable (tem-
porarily shut down) certain OBD II diagnostic trou-
ble codes when the PTO is engaged.
When the aftermarket PTO switch has been
engaged, a 12V + signal is sent through circuit G113
to PCM pin A13. The PCM will then sense and deter-
mine that the PTO has been activated.
THROTTLE BODY
DESCRIPTION
The throttle body is located on the intake manifold.
Fuel does not enter the intake manifold through the
throttle body. Fuel is sprayed into the manifold by
the fuel injectors.
OPERATION
Filtered air from the air cleaner enters the intake
manifold through the throttle body. The throttle body
contains an air control passage controlled by an Idle
Air Control (IAC) motor. The air control passage is
used to supply air for idle conditions. A throttle valve
(plate) is used to supply air for above idle conditions.
Certain sensors are attached to the throttle body.
The accelerator pedal cable, speed control cable and
transmission control cable (when equipped) are con-
nected to the throttle body linkage arm.
A (factory adjusted) set screw is used to mechani-
cally limit the position of the throttle body throttle
plate.Never attempt to adjust the engine idle
speed using this screw.All idle speed functions are
controlled by the PCM.

DESCRIPTIONÐHIGH PRESSURE FUEL LINES
The high-pressure fuel lines are the 6 lines located
between the fuel injection pump and the fuel injector
connector tubes (Fig. 45). All other fuel lines are con-
sidered low-pressure lines.
OPERATIONÐHIGH PRESSURE FUEL LINES
CAUTION: The high-pressure fuel lines must be
held securely in place in their holders. The lines
cannot contact each other or other components. Do
not attempt to weld high-pressure fuel lines or to
repair lines that are damaged. If lines are ever
kinked or bent, they must be replaced. Use only the
recommended lines when replacement of high-pres-
sure fuel line is necessary.
High-pressure fuel lines deliver fuel under pres-
sure of up to approximately 120,000 kPa (17,405 PSI)
from the injection pump to the fuel injectors. The
lines expand and contract from the high-pressure
fuel pulses generated during the injection process. All
high-pressure fuel lines are of the same length and
inside diameter. Correct high-pressure fuel line usage
and installation is critical to smooth engine opera-
tion.
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN
INSPECTING FOR HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL LEAKS.
INSPECT FOR HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL LEAKS WITH
A SHEET OF CARDBOARD. HIGH FUEL INJECTION
PRESSURE CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY IF
CONTACT IS MADE WITH THE SKIN.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HIGH-PRESSURE
FUEL LINE LEAKS
High-pressure fuel line leaks can cause starting
problems and poor engine performance.
WARNING: DUE TO EXTREME FUEL PRESSURES
OF UP TO 120,000 kPa (17,400 PSI), USE EXTREME
CAUTION WHEN INSPECTING FOR HIGH-PRES-
SURE FUEL LEAKS. DO NOT GET YOUR HAND
NEAR A SUSPECTED LEAK. INSPECT FOR HIGH-
PRESSURE FUEL LEAKS WITH A SHEET OF CARD-
BOARD. HIGH FUEL INJECTION PRESSURE CAN
CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY IF CONTACT IS MADE
WITH THE SKIN.
Start the engine. Move the cardboard over the
high-pressure fuel lines and check for fuel spray onto
the cardboard (Fig. 46). If a high-pressure line con-
nection is leaking, bleed the system and tighten the
connection. Refer to the Air Bleed Procedure in this
group for procedures. Replace damaged, restricted or
leaking high-pressure fuel lines with the correct
replacement line.
