4. Remove the fuel hose on the fuel plate then connect
the check valve hose to it (don't forget to slide a clamp).
Use the clamps provided with the kit and clamp everything
down. you can use the black nut covers that is also provided
in the kit to make it nice. (No one will ever notice...) |
If your injectors aren't leaking, the problem might be due
to a loss of pressure in the fuel system ( bad check valve
but good fuel pump). Install a check valve in the fuel pump
output fuel hose (under the trunk floor mat, thru the access
panel)
