FUEL LINES (Continued)
CAUTION: The high-pressure fuel lines must be
clamped securely in place in the 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. Only use the recom-
mended lines when replacement of high-pressure
fuel line is necessary.
REMOVAL
High-pressure lines are used between the fuel
injection pump and the fuel injectors only. 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 operation.
CAUTION: Refer to Cleaning Fuel System Parts.
(1) Disconnect both negative battery cables from
both batteries. Cover and isolate ends of cables.
(2) Thoroughly clean fuel lines at cylinder head

clips and 2 push tabs (Fig. 39). Remove 2 Phillips
screws and carefully pry out 2 retention clips. After
clip removal, push rearward on front tab, and
upward on lower tab for cover removal. Do not
