Fuel System Pressure Release

  1. To relieve fuel system pressure on 300ZX models, remove fuel pump relay. Relay is located under dash on driver's side, below hood release lever. On all other models, remove fuel pump fuse.
  2. On all models, start engine and allow to run until fuel is exhausted and engine stalls. Crank engine an additional 2 or 3 times to verify all pressure has dissipated. Turn ignition off. Install fuel pump fuse or relay.
