Final Fuel Filter Bleed Vent Screw

IMPORTANT: NEVER pressurize the fuel tank to prime
the fuel system as it could rupture seals
in the injection pump.
NOTE: These are the 4-valve cylinder head 4.5 L and 6.8
L “475” model engines with Denso HP3 pumps
and High Pressure Common Rail (HPCR) fuel
systems (decal on rocker arm cover marked “16V”
or “24V”).
IMPORTANT: Four valve cylinder head engines are
especially sensitive to fuel
contamination. Do not crack any fuel
lines to bleed the fuel system.
