4. Check Fuel Pressure

• Tools Required: Fuel pressure gauge
• Sub-steps:

  2. Turn the ignition key to the "ON" position (do not start the engine) to build fuel pressure.
  3. Check the fuel pressure reading against the manufacturer specifications.
  4. If the pressure is low, inspect and replace the fuel filter and consider checking the fuel pump.
