1992 Isuzu Pickup LS, RWD, Standard, MUA5CSECTION Fuel Injector Balance Test
- Connect fuel pressure gauge to fuel rail. Disconnect vacuum hose at pressure regulator. Turn ignition on and note fuel pressure. Fuel pressure should be 35-38 psi (2.5-2.7 kg/cm2
). Start engine, and reconnect vacuum hose. Fuel pressure should slightly decrease.NOTE: Fuel pressure must be correct before proceeding with fuel injector balance test.
- With ignition off, unplug harness connectors at all injectors. Install Injector Tester (J-34730-3) on one injector. Turn ignition on, and bleed off air in fuel pressure gauge. Fuel pump should operate for approximately 2 seconds.

Pressure may increase for a few seconds after initial pressure drop.CAUTION: To prevent flooding, entire test should not be repeated more than once.
