  Q: What precautions should be taken when servicing the fuel pressure regulator on Ford Excursion?

  A:

  Service operations on the fuel pressure regulator demand complete prevention of smoking and usage of lighted tobacco products or open flame sources because fuel system contents contain highly flammable mixtures that could ignite and result in personal injury. High pressure maintains its state throughout the fuel system during periods of engine idling so technicians must lower pressure before they detach any fuel-related parts or lines. First release fuel system pressure after which you should disconnect the battery ground cable. To continue proceed with the engine service you must remove the engine air cleaner and the air cleaner outlet tube and also the accelerator splash shield followed by the throttle body spacer. Users can disable the EGR vacuum regulator (EVR) through separate removal of its electrical connector and vacuum line. Proceed by removing all bolts of the bracket assembly before disconnecting the vacuum hose to remove the pressure regulator along with its snap ring. To finish the installation check for fuel leakages then follow the installation steps backwards starting from the pressure regulator to the accelerator splash shield. Engine oil must be used for lubricating new O-ring seals during installation.

  Q: How to service the fuel pressure regulator safely and effectively on Ford Excursion?

  A:

  The first step for servicing the fuel pressure regulator requires smokers and open flames to avoid fuel-related areas because highly flammable mixtures exist within these systems. First drain the fuel system pressure then remove the ground cable from the battery. The next step requires removing the throttle body spacer with a simultaneous disconnection of the vacuum hose. Begin the pressure regulator service by first removing the snap ring then extracting the pressure regulator device while discarding the O-ring seal. To install the part follow the reverse order of removal while applying clean engine oil to the new O-ring seal for the fuel pressure.
