• Check the injectors in a well-ventilated area
free of combustible materials. Make sure
that there is no smoking or use of electric
tools in the vicinity of the injectors.

hose. Any remaining pressure in the fuel
hose may cause the fuel to spray out. Place
a container or rag under the hose to catch
any fuel that spills. Always clean up any
spilt fuel immediately.
• Turn the main switch to “OFF” and discon-
nect the negative battery lead from the bat-
tery terminal before removing the injectors.
