Fuel Meter Cover Assembly

Fuel Meter Cover (TBI):

WARNING: DO NOT remove the four screws securing the pressure regulator to the fuel meter cover. The fuel pressure regulator includes a large spring under heavy compression which, if accidently released, could cause personal injury. Disassembly might also be result in a fuel leak between the diaphragm and the regulator container.

NOTE: The fuel meter cover assembly contains the fuel pressure regulator assembly. The regulator has been adjusted at the factory and should only be serviced as a complete assembly.

REMOVAL:

- Disconnect electrical connectors to fuel injectors. (Squeeze plastic tabs and pull straight up).
- Remove long and short meter cover screw assemblies.
- Remove fuel meter cover assembly.
NOTE: DO NOT immerse fuel meter cover (with pressure regulator) in cleaner, as damage to regulator and gasket could occur.
- Remove fuel meter outlet gasket and pressure regulator seal. Discard old gaskets and seal.

INSPECTION:

- Inspect for dirt, foreign material and casting warpage.

INSTALLATION:

- Install a new pressure regulator seal, fuel meter outlet passage gasket, and cover gasket.
- Install fuel meter cover assembly.
