sions. Fuel Pump and Pressure Regulation The fuel pump supplies pressurized fuel to the engine. The fuel pressure regulator, usually mounted on the fuel rail, maintains a consistent pressure—typically around 55-60 psi for many Cadil
Carefully disconnect the electrical connector. Remove any attached vapor lines or vent hoses. Remove the Old Sensor: Unscrew or unclip the sensor from its mounting point. Install the New Sensor: Secure the new sensor in place. Reconnect vapor lines and
