13. Check for fuel leaks at injection pump and injectors using a piece of paper placed near
the suspect fitting or sleeve nut to be checked. The paper should show leaks if present.
Do NOT use your fingers to feel for leaks! Watch for fuel spray on paper. Repair as
needed.
14. Retest until certain no leaks are present.
NOTE: Be certain to observe precautions about the use of safety glasses! It is sometimes
helpful to use compressed air to dry the area near fitting and sleeve nuts when checking for
fuel leaks.
15. Allow engine to reach operating temperature. Once again check for leaks as previously
outlined and correct as needed.
