SFI SYSTEM / PRECAUTION
1. BEFORE WORKING ON FUEL SYSTEM, DISCONNECT NEGATIVE (-) TERMINAL CABLE FROM BATTERY
HINT: Any diagnostic trouble code retained by the computer will be erased when the negative (-) terminal cable is removed from the battery. Therefore, if necessary, read the diagnosis before removing the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery.
2. DO NOT SMOKE OR WORK NEAR AN OPEN FLAME WHEN WORKING ON FUEL SYSTEM
3. KEEP GASOLINE AWAY FROM RUBBER OR LEATHER PARTS
4. ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
a. Before removing SFI wiring connectors, terminals, etc., first disconnect the power by either turning the ignition switch OFF or disconnecting the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery.
HINT: Always check the diagnostic trouble code before disconnecting the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery.
b. When installing the battery, be especially careful not to incorrectly connect the positive (+) and negative (-) cables.
c. Do not permit parts to receive a severe impact during removal or installation. Handle all SFI parts carefully, especially the ECM.
d. Do not be careless during troubleshooting as there are numerous transistor circuits and even slight terminal contact can further troubles.
e. Do not open the ECM cover.
f. When inspecting in rainy weather, take care to prevent an intrusion of water. Also, when washing the engine compartment, prevent water from getting on the SFI parts and wiring connectors.
g. Parts should be replaced as an assembly.
h. Care is required when pulling out and inserting wiring connectors.
1. Release the lock and pull out the connector, pulling on the connectors.
2. Fully insert the connector and check that it is locked.
3. Use SST for inspection or test of the injector or its wiring connector.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
