  • Reattach the housing cover and tighten the fasteners.
3. Test and Repair Fuel System
  • Tools Required: Fuel pressure gauge
  • Locate the fuel pressure test port on the fuel rail.
  • Connect the fuel pressure gauge and turn the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
  • Check the pressure reading against manufacturer specifications; replace the fuel pump or filter if needed.
  • Inspect and replace any damaged fuel lines.
4. Inspect Ignition System
  • Tools Required: Socket set, torque wrench
  • Remove the ignition coils from the engine.
  • Inspect spark plugs for wear, carbon buildup, or damage. Replace if necessary.
  • Reinstall coils and torque to manufacturer specifications.
5. Clean Throttle Body
  • Tools Required: Throttle body cleaner, soft cloth
