FUEL HOSES AND CLAMPS
WARNING: THE TBI FUEL SYSTEM IS UNDER A
CONSTANT PRESSURE OF APPROXIMATELY 100
KPA (14.5 PSI). BEFORE SERVICING FUEL SYSTEM
HOSES OR LINES THE FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE
MUST B E RELEASED.
Inspect a l l hose connections. Ensure t h e y are se-
cure a n d n o t leaking. Hoses should be replaced i m -
mediately i f there is a n y evidence o f degradation
t h a t could result i n f a i l u r e .
A v o i d contact w i t h clamps or other components
t h a t cause abrasions or scuffing. Ensure t h a t t h e
rubber hoses are properly routed to prevent p i n c h i n g
and to avoid heat sources.
The hoses used on fuel injected vehicles are o f spe-
cial construction due t o t h e possibility o f contami-
nated fuel i n t h i s system. I f i t is necessary t o replace
these hoses, only hoses m a r k e d EFM/EFI m a y be
used.
The hose clamps used on fuel injected vehicles are
of a special rolled edge construction to prevent t h e
edge of t h e clamp c u t t i n g i n t o t h e hose. O n l y these
rolled edge type clamps m a y be used i n t h i s system,
a l l other types of clamps may cut into t h e hoses a n d
cause h i g h pressure fuel leaks.
Use
n e w o r i g i n a l equipment type hose clamps,
t i g h t e n hose clamps to 1 N n n (10 i n . lbs.) torque.
