Fuel pressure regulator - removal and refitting
Note: Refer to the precautions at the end of Section 1 before proceeding.
Removal
1 The fuel pressure regulator is only used on
KE-Jetronic systems and is located behind
the fuel distributor (see illustration).

distributor
2 Disconnect the battery negative lead.
3 Relieve the system pressure by slowly loosening the cold start valve union on the top of the fuel distributor (see illustration 6.4).
Absorb fuel leakage in a cloth.
4 Place absorbent cloth beneath the regulator and undo the two fuel feed unions and the fuel return union. Note the pipe locations to ensure correct refitting.
5 Remove the securing tie and withdraw the regulator from its bracket.
Refitting
6 Refitting is a reversal of removal. Ensure
that all unions are correctly reconnected and
secure, and on completion check for fuel leaks
with the engine running (see illustration).
