Fuel Pressure Release

Before disconnecting fuel line, release fuel pressure from fuel line to eliminate danger.

NOTE: Prepare pans or saucers under the disconnected fuel line because the fuel may spill out. The fuel pressure cannot be completely released because B 15 models do not have fuel return system.

With CONSULT-II

Start engine.
Perform FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE in "WORK SUPPORT" mode with CONSULT-II.
After engine stalls, crank it two or three times to release all fuel pressure.
Turn ignition switch OFF.
