Fuel Pressure Sensor - G247- , Remov‐

ing and Installing

Special tools and workshop equipment required
♦ Elbow Assembly Tool - T10118-
♦ Socket - 27mm - T40218-
If the Fuel Pressure Sensor - G247- fails, the Fuel Pressure Reg‐

ulator Valve - N276- will switch off, the electric fuel pump is fully

activated and the engine will be driven by the existing fuel pres‐

sure. This will reduce the engine torque dramatically.
