Fuel Pump Replacement – Important Advisory
When replacing the fuel pump it is essential to clean the fuel tank as part of the procedure.
Fuel pumps on these models operate at high pressure, and even small amounts of dirt or debris left in the tank can quickly damage the new pump or block the fuel filter.
-
The tank must be completely drained and cleaned whenever the fuel pump or filter is replaced.
-
The system should be flushed with mineral spirits or an approved cleaner until the fluid runs clear.
-
All filters, O-rings, and seals must be renewed during reassembly.
-
Before refilling, check all fuel lines for corrosion or restrictions.
-
After installation, refill with clean fuel and verify system pressure according to factory specifications.
Neglecting this step can result in premature pump failure, loss of fuel pressure, or contaminated injectors.
