📋 Procedure

1. Remove rear seat bench 72.
2. Unclip retaining tabs (arrows) for flange cover.
3. Unplug electrical connector (arrow) at flange.
4. Connect remote controlV.A.G 1348/3A for V.A.G 1348 to contact (1) using adapter cable V.A.G 1348/3-3 and test lead from auxiliary measuring setV.A.G 1594C.
5. Tape off 2nd connector contact of adapter cable V.A.G 1348/3-3 with insulating tape (arrow) to prevent short circuits.

6. Connect contact (5) to the body (earth) using a test lead from auxiliary measuring setV.A.G 1594C.
7. Connect crocodile clip to battery "“+”" (positive terminal in engine compartment).
8. Remove filler cap from fuel filler neck.
9. Detach fuel line from retainer and remove heat insulation sleeve (1) at fuel line connection.
10. ⚠ Risk of injury - fuel system operates under high pressure.To reduce the pressure in the fuel system, wrap a clean cloth around the connection and carefully loosen the connection. — Disconnect fuel line (3) by pulling release ring (2).
11. Screw connectorV.A.G 1318/23 and adapter V.A.G 1318/17-1A onto K-Jetronic pressure testerV.A.G 1318.
12. Fit adapter V.A.G 1318/17-1A onto disconnected fuel line.
13. Screw adapterV.A.G 1318/11 onto K-Jetronic pressure testerV.A.G 1318.
14. Attach test hose (arrow) and hold end of hose in measuring container.
15. Open cut-off valve on pressure tester.
16. Build up pressure in fuel system by pressing the remote control button and slowly closing the cut-off valve on the pressure tester.
17. From this point on do not move position of cut-off valve.
18. Empty the measuring container.
19. Press remote control button for 15 seconds.
20. Compare amount of fuel delivered with minimum delivery shown in diagram (cm3/15 sec.). [Note: Voltage at fuel pump with engine stationary and pump running is approx. 2 volts less than battery voltage.]
21. Install rear seat bench 72.
