Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
On The Hoist
Fuel supply lines will remain pressurized for long periods of time after the engine is shutdown. This pressure must be relieved before servicing the fuel system.
- Connect the scan tool to the vehicle diagnostic connector and turn the ignition ON.
- Relieve the fuel system pressure. Refer to FUEL PRESSURE RELIEF (WITH J 34730-1A) and FUEL PRESSURE RELIEF (WITHOUT J 34730-1A) .WARNING:
Ensure that the vehicle is properly supported and squarely positioned. To help avoid personal injury when a vehicle is on a hoist, provide additional support for the vehicle on the opposite end from which the components are being removed.
- Raise the vehicle on a hoist to a comfortable working height, keeping the scan tool outside of the vehicle and accessible from under the car.
