Decompressing Fuel System

[GTST4DR]

Hey Guys,

Was just wondering if someone was able to tell me which relay to pull to cut the fuel pump and in turn decompress the fuel system so when I rip the old filter out so I don't get covered with fuel

Cheers in advance.

I can only help when it comes to R32's. If you havent had the ignition on for awhile and you release pressure in the tank as a precaution it will barely leak any fuel. Just hold a rag over it when you pull the hose off. Even just after you turn the ignition off (pressure built up) it will only spray a tiny bit out for a second. Nothing much to be concerned about This is all i do every day at work.

There should be a fuel pump fuse, 15A or somthing. Pull that out, crank the car and it will stall, crank it 2 more times to relief the pressure and you can now change out the fuel filter without fuel spilling everywhere.

I coulda said that but i think he wanted to know exactly which fuse to pull. If its in japanese it can be hard to read Fuel wont spill out everywhere. There will be a a tiny little spray if you disconnect it shortly after the pump has been running.

i just took the fuel filter off and let the little bit of fuel come out, there was stuff all in the with the engine off.

Just loosen the fuel filler cap. The pssshhhh you will hear is the pressure from the fuel system being released.

I had a relay fuse for the fuel pump in the boot, disconnected that and turned her over, due to not being able to read kanji and therefore not knowing which fuse in the block was for the fuel pump.
