Inspection
1. Check the fuel tank for cracks and corrosion.
2. If any defect is found, repair or replace the tank.
Warning
Before repairing, clean the fuel tank thorough-
ly with steam to remove all explosive fuel and
fumes.
Installation
Install in the reverse order of removal, referring to the installation note.

76G04C-128
To prevent percolation of the fuel during idle after the engine is restarted, vacuum is cut to the pres-
sure regulator, increasing the fuel pressure.
Specified time: Approx. 120 sec.
Operating condition: Coolant temperature — above 70°C (158°F)
Intake air temperature — above 30°C (86°F)....Unleaded fuel
above 50°C (122°F)....Leaded fuel

After 120 sec. 186-226 (1.9-2.3, 27-33)
3. Warm up the engine to normal operating temper-
ature and stop the engine.
Warning
Be careful when disconnecting the water ther-
mo sensor connector because the surround-
ing area is very hot.
4. Disconnect the water thermo sensor connector.
Connect a resistor (200 fl) to the sensor connector.
5. Heat the intake air thermo sensor to above specifi-
cation.
Specification: 30°C (86°F)....unleaded fuel
50°C (122°F)....leaded fuel
6. Restart the engine.
7. Check the fuel line pressure and operating times
as shown in the chart.

Solenoid Valve (Pressure Regulator Control)
Inspection
1. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the vacuum
pipe.
2. Blow through the solenoid valve from vacuum hose
A.
3. Check that air flows from port B.
