NOTICE:
Correct torque on the high-pressure lines is critical. Incorrect torques could result in leaks or lack of
power due to restricted fuel flow.
a. Make sure that all high-pressure lines have been tightened to 25 N·m (18 lb·ft) and all banjo
bolts to 40 N·m (30 lb·ft).
b. If equipped with a hand pump on the fuel/water separator, work the hand pump 50 times.
c. Crank the engine for 30 seconds at a time, but no longer . Before cranking the engine again,
wait at least two minutes. The engine should start within four 30-second attempts.
8. With the engine running, check the fuel filter for leaks. Shut down the engine.
