When working on the fuel supply/injection system, pay careful attention to the following "7 rules" of cleanliness:
- Thoroughly clean all connections and the surrounding areas before disconnecting.
- Place Parts that have been removed on a clean surface and cover them using lint free cloths.
- Carefully cover or seal opened components, if repairs are not performed immediately.
- Install only clean Parts, remove the replacement Parts from their packaging just before installing them. Do not use Parts that have been stored loose (for example, in a tool box, etc.).
- Transport and protective packaging and sealing caps are to be removed only immediately prior to installation.
- When the fuel system is open: avoid working with compressed air if possible. Do not move the vehicle unless absolutely necessary.
- In addition, do not allow diesel fuel to leak onto the coolant hoses. If necessary, the hoses must be wiped off immediately. Replace any corroded hoses.
