- Pull up the retainer of fuel high-pressure hose to unlock before installing.
- Securely insert the fuel rail stopper into the fuel high-pressure hose connector groove to install the fuel high-pressure hose to the fuel rail. CAUTION: When pushing in the retainer of the fuel high-pressure hose connector, pay attention to avoid damage to the retainer. After the installation of the fuel high-pressure hose, slightly pull the fuel high-pressure hose to check that it is connected securely. At this time, also check that there is approximately 1 mm (0.04 inch) play.
- Push in the retainer of the fuel high-pressure hose connector to lock the fuel high-pressure hose and fuel rail.
