( 1 ) Pressure gauge needs to be able to measure pressure in a vacuum.
Ensure that all adjustments and repairs that are carried out to the fuel system are performed by authorized personnel that have the correct training.Before beginning ANY work on the fuel system, refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "General Hazard Information and High Pressure Fuel Lines" for safety information. Refer to Systems Operation, Testing and Adjusting, "Cleanliness of Fuel System Components" for detailed information on the standards of cleanliness that must be observed during ALL work on the fuel system.
Note: Ensure that the engine is stopped before installing and removing Tooling (A) and (B) or carrying out any repair work on the fuel system.

Remove all relevant tube assemblies. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly for the correct procedures.
Install Tooling (A) at location (A) . Refer to illustration 1. Install Tooling (B) at locations (B) , (C) , (D) , and (E) . Refer to illustration 1.
Start the engine. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual for the correct procedure.
Use Tooling (A) and (B) to measure the pressure values in the order indicated in table 2 at both idle speed and at maximum engine speed with zero load. In both measurement conditions, the values measured must be between the minimum and maximum permissible pressure values.
Use Tooling (A) to measure the pressure value at position (A) . If the pressure value measured is lower than the minimum permissible pressure, check that the primary fuel filter is not restricted. Check that the tube assemblies upstream of the measurement point are not restricted. Check that there are no signs of air infiltration or damage in the tube assemblies and connectors upstream of the inlet of the fuel injection pump. Replace any damaged components.
Use Tooling (B) to measure the pressure value at position (B) . If the pressure value measured is lower than the minimum permissible pressure, check that the fuel injection pump functions correctly. Check for leaks in the circuit. If the pressure value measured is greater than the maximum permissible pressure, check that the lines between the secondary
