ENGINE FUEL 6C – 5
FUEL FILTER
Legend
(1) Priming Pump
(2) Fuel Filter Cartridge
A cartridge type fuel filter is used along with the piston
type fuel pump on the high pressure oil pump.
The fuel filter removes foreign material from the fuel
before it reaches the fuel pump.
A diaphragm type priming pump is installed at the top of
the fuel filter. It is used during the air bleeding
procedures.
INJECTOR ASSEMBLY
Legend
(1) Oil Passage
(2) Fuel Passage
1. Construction of Fuel Injector
The fuel injector is comprised of the solenoid
section, hydraulic line, and fuel line. Fuel injection is
controlled by the continuity time signal and
continuity start timing signal sent by the ECM
(Electronic Control Module) to the solenoid.
2. Working of Fuel Injector
1) The ECM detects the working of the engine from
its input signals, such as engine speed
accelerator throttle opening, and engine coolant
temperature, sending the optimal signals to the
solenoid.

REASSEMBLY
1. Clean the cartridge mounting surface of the filter
body so that the cartridge can be secured.
Apply engine oil thinly to new cartridge O-ring.
2. To facilitate bleeding, fill the new cartridge with light
oil.
3. Tighten the cartridge until O-ring comes in contact
with the seal, taking care not to spill the light oil.
4. Retighten 1/3 – 2/3 using a filter wrench.
Filter wrench: 5-8840-0203-0
Bleeding
1. Loosen air bleeding plug.
2. Operate priming pump to bleed the air in the fuel
line.
3. Operate the priming pump until the fuel is overflow
from air bleeding plug.
4. Tighten the air bleeding plug.
5. Start the engine, and if it is not started in 10
seconds or less, repeat the bleeding steps.
6. Make sure of no fuel leakage, and tighten the
priming pump.

NOTE: In comparison with the conventional engine,
the capacity of fuel passage in the 4JX1 engine is
larger. It takes the priming pump more time to fill the
engine with fuel.

Bleeding
1. Check the level of clutch fluid in the reservoir and
replenish if necessary.
Bleeding the damper cylinder (except V6 LHD
model).
2. Remove the rubber cap from the bleeder screw and
wipe clean the bleeder screw. Connect a vinyl tube to
the bleeder screw and insert the other end of the vinyl
tube into a transparent container.
3. Pump the clutch pedal repeatedly and hold it
depressed.

4. Loosen the bleeder screw to release clutch fluid with
air bubbles into the container, then tighten the bleeder
screw immediately.5. Release the clutch pedal carefully. Repeat the above
operation until air bubbles disappear from the clutch
fluid being pumped out into the container. During the
bleeding operation, keep the clutch fluid reservoir
filled to the specified level. Reinstall the rubber cap.
Bleeding the slave cylinder
6. Repeat step 2 through 5 for bleeding the slave
cylinder.
