The fuel pump check valve or the pressure regulator allows the residual fuel pressure to drop.

SOLUTION

Note: Check the residual fuel pressure before checking for other possible causes.

1. Relieve the fuel pressure as described in the service manual, then connect a fuel pressure gauge at the fuel filler.

2. Start the engine and run it for several seconds until the fuel pressure stabilizes.

3. Turn the engine off. The fuel pressure should stay at 30-35 psi forthe first five minutes andshould drop no more than 10 psi in the first 10 minutes. If the fuel pressure drops too fast, go to step 4. If the fuel pressure remains stable, consult the service manual for other engine or ignition-related causes of the symptom.

4. Restart the engine, then turn it off and lightly pinch the return hose from the pressure regulator. If the fuel pressure remains stable, replace the pressure regulator with the new part listed under

PARTS INFORMATION

If the fuel pressure still drops too last, replace the fuel pump.

Fuel Pump: p/n 16700-PG7-663

Pressure Regulator: p/n 16740-PG7-663

We know a crankshaft plays a critical role in an engine’s performance, converting reciprocating motion into rotary motion while serving as the backbone of the entire system. It must be strong enough to withstand the continuous pounding of rods and pistons, yet possess enough elasticity to absorb vibrations and flex, albeit slightly, when needed.
