- INSPECT INJECTOR INJECTION CAUTION: Keep injector clean of sparks during the test. Disconnect the fuel inlet hose (fuel tube connector) from the fuel filter. CAUTION: Perform disconnecting operations of the fuel tube connector (quick type) after reading the precautions (See «PRECAUTION»(ref-209797-S18971641052005121100000) ). Prevent the retained pressure in the fuel pipe line from splashing inside the engine compartment. Purchase the new fuel main hose and take out the fuel tube connector from its hose. Part No. 23271-50150 Connect SST (hose) and fuel tube connector to the fuel filter outlet. SST 09268-41047 CAUTION: Perform connecting operations of the fuel tube connector (quick type) after reading the precautions (See «PRECAUTION»(ref-209797-S18971641052005121100000) ). HINT: Use the vehicle's fuel filter. Remove the pressure regulator from the delivery pipe. Install the O-ring to the fuel inlet of the pressure regulator. Connect SST (hose) to the fuel inlet of the pressure regulator with SST (union) and the 2 bolts. SST 09268-41047 (09268-41091) Torque: 7.5 N.m (80 kgf.cm, 66 in.lbf) Connect the fuel return hose to the fuel outlet of the pressure regulator. Install the O-ring to the injector. Connect SST (adaptor and hose) to the injector, and hold the injector and union with SST (clamp). SST 09268-41047 (09268-41110, 09268-41300) Put the injector into the graduated cylinder. CAUTION: Install a suitable vinyl hose onto the injector to prevent gasoline from splashing out. Connect the LEXUS hand-held OBD II scan tool tester to the DLC3. Connect the battery negative (-) cable to the battery. Turn the ignition switch ON, and press the LEXUS hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool main switch ON. NOTE: Do not start the engine. Select the ACTIVE TEST mode on the LEXUS hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool. Please refer to the LEXUS hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool operator's manual for further details. If you have no LEXUS hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool, connect the positive (+) and negative (-) leads from the battery to the fuel pump connector (See «FUEL PUMP»(ref-209797-S20312392262005121100000) ). Connect SST (wire) to the injector and the battery for 15 seconds, and measure the injection volume with a graduated cylinder. Test each injector 2 or 3 times. SST 09842-30070 Volume: 56 - 69 cm 3 (3.4 - 4.2 cu in.) per 15 seconds Difference between each injector: 13 cm 3 (0.8 cu in.) or less If the injection volume is not as specified, replace the injector.
- INSPECT LEAKAGE In the condition above, disconnect the tester probes of SST (wire) from the battery and check the fuel leakage from the injector. SST 09842-30070 Fuel drop: 1 drop or less per 12 minutes Turn the ignition switch OFF. Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery. Remove SST and fuel tube connector. SST 09268-41047, 09842-30070 Disconnect the LEXUS hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool from the DLC3. Reconnect the fuel inlet pipe (fuel tube connector) to the fuel filter. CAUTION: Perform connecting operations of the fuel tube connector (quick type) after reading the precautions (See «PRECAUTION»(ref-209797-S18971641052005121100000) ).

- INSTALL INJECTORS AND DELIVERY PIPES NOTE: Be careful not to drop the injectors when installing the delivery pipes. Since the O-ring may be stuck to the injector, do not put a side load on it at the removal. Install a new grommet to each injector. Apply a light coat of gasoline to new O-rings and install them to each injector. While turning the injector clockwise and counterclockwise, push it to the delivery pipes. Install the 8 injectors. Position injector connector outward. Place the 4 spacers and 8 new insulators on the intake manifold. Place the 2 delivery pipes and the injectors assemblies on the lower intake manifold. Temporarily install the 4 nuts. Install the front fuel pipe with the bolt, the 4 new gaskets and the 2 union bolts. Torque: 39 N.m (400 kgf.cm, 29 ft.lbf) for union bolts 7.5 N.m (80 kgf.cm, 66 in.lbf) for bolt Install the bolt holding the clamp on the fuel return pipe to the LH delivery pipe. Torque: 7.5 N.m (80 kgf.cm, 66 in.lbf) Check that the injectors rotate smoothly. HINT: If injectors do not rotate smoothly, the probable cause is incorrect installation of O-rings. Replace the O-rings in that case. Position the injector connector outward. Tighten the 4 nuts holding the delivery pipes to the lower Intake manifold.
