PERSONAL INJURY
To prevent the escape of high pressure fuel that can penetrate skin, ensure the engine
has been shut down for a minimum of 10 minutes before servicing any component
within the high pressure circuit. Residual high fuel pressure may be present within the
circuit.
1. Shut off the engine, apply the parking brake, chock the wheels, and perform any
other applicable safety steps.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK
To avoid injury from electrical shock, use care when disconnecting battery cables.
The magnetic switch studs are at battery voltage.
2. Disconnect the batteries.
3. Open the hood.
4. If necessary, remove the bumper. Refer to the Original Equipment Manufacturer
(OEM) procedures.
5. If necessary for access, remove the air cleaner. Refer to the (OEM) procedures.

7. Remove and discard the two P-clip bolts from the mounting bracket.
8. Remove and discard the mounting bracket bolts (2) from the intake manifold and
discard the mounting bracket (1).
NOTE: When removing the high pressure fuel rail feed lines, hold the high pressure
pump fitting with a 24mm wrench. If the high pressure pump fittings are loosened
while removing the high pressure fuel rail feed lines, re-torque the fittings to 75 N·m
(55 lb·ft).
9. Remove and discard the high pressure fuel rail feed lines, vibration dampers, and Pclips from the fuel rail and high pressure fuel pump.
10. Remove and discard the return lines triple-clip (3).

Installation of the DD13 High Pressure Fuel Rail Feed
Lines - Three-Filter System
NOTICE: The high pressure fuel rail feed lines, vibration
dampers, P-clips, mounting bracket and hardware are one-time
use components and MUST be replaced any time they are
removed or loosened. Refer to TS letter 16 TS-9 Rev2
(http://dtna.info/16ts9) for the high pressure fuel line kit
numbers.
NOTE: DO NOT install bolts and fittings using power tools. All bolts and fittings
MUST be installed using hand tools.
PERSONAL INJURY
All hardware/components MUST be installed in the proper locations, and MUST be
fastened to the specified torque. Failure to properly torque hardware/components will
result in failure of a high pressure fuel feed line, resulting in possible fire and/or
personal injury.
1. Install the new return lines triple-clip (3) on to the return lines.
18SP730Rev. Page 7 of 14
2. Clean the sealing area inside the high pressure fuel pump outlet fittings using a
clean lint-free cloth. The photo shown below is of KM59 GEN1 High Pressure Fuel
Pump Fittings.
3. Clean the sealing area inside the high pressure fuel rail using a clean lint-free cloth.
The photo shown below is of KM59 GEN1 high pressure fuel rail fittings.
18SP730Rev. Page 8 of 14
NOTICE: New P-clip MUST be installed on to the high pressure fuel rail feed lines
with the lower P-clip plate (1) inserted into the P-clip window (2); see graphic below.
4. Install both of the new P-clips, one each, onto the high pressure fuel rail feed lines;
see graphic below.
18SP730Rev. Page 9 of 14
NOTE: DO NOT use new high pressure fuel rail feed lines that do not have new
vibration dampers installed.
5. Position the rear high pressure fuel rail feed line into the fuel rail and the high
pressure fuel pump. Do not start the threads of the fuel line nuts at this point.
6. Position the front high pressure fuel rail feed line into the fuel rail and the high
pressure fuel pump. Do not start the threads of the fuel line nuts at this point.
7. Install the new mounting bracket (1) and two new mounting bracket bolts (2) to the
fuel rail clamp. Hand-tighten the mounting bracket bolts all the way until the
bracket and bolts are flush. Do not torque at this time.
18SP730Rev. Page 10 of 14
NOTE: New P-clips (2) MUST be installed perpendicular to the bracket (1) and
parallel with each other. Hold P-clips in place during tightening to avoid rotation of
the P-Clips; see graphic below.
8. Ensure the rear high pressure fuel rail feed line is in place to where the P-clip
mounting hole lines up with the bracket nut. No excessive force should be applied
to any components from the high pressure fuel rail feed line kit while assembling
them loosely.
9. Install the new rear P-clip bolt hand tight. Do not torque at this time.
10. Hand-tighten the rear high pressure fuel rail feed line starting with the rail side nut
first, and then the nut at the high pressure fuel pump.
18SP730Rev. Page 11 of 14
NOTICE: After torqueing each fuel line nut, P-clip bolt, mounting bracket bolt, and
return line triple-clip bolt, mark the fittings and fasteners with a paint pen. Draw a
line with the paint pen on the fitting or fastener and the adjacent metal as shown in the
photograph below. The photograph shown below is of the KM63 fuel system, the
three filter system is similar.
PERSONAL INJURY
All hardware/components MUST be installed in the proper locations, and MUST be
fastened to the specified torque. Failure to properly torque hardware/components will
result in failure of a high pressure fuel feed line, resulting in possible fire and/or
personal injury.
11. Using fuel line socket W314589010300 or a commercially available 19mm fuel line
socket, torque the rear high pressure fuel rail feed line nuts to 40 N·m (30 lb·ft)
starting with the rail side nut first, and then the nut at the high pressure fuel pump.
Using a paint pen, draw a line with the paint on the fuel line nut and the adjacent
metal once torqued, as shown in the photograph above.
12. Ensure the front high pressure fuel rail feed line is in place so that the p-clip
mounting hole lines up with the bracket nut. No excessive force should be applied
to any components from the high pressure fuel rail feed lines kit while loosely
assembling them.
13. Install the new front P-clip bolt hand tight. Do not torque at this time.
18SP730Rev. Page 12 of 14
14. Hand-tighten the front high pressure fuel rail feed line starting with the rail side nut
first, and then the nut at the high pressure fuel pump.
15. Using fuel line socket W314589010300 or a commercially available 19mm fuel line
socket, torque the front high pressure fuel rail feed line nuts to 40 N·m (30 lb·ft)
starting with the rail side nut first, and then the nut at the high pressure fuel pump.
Using a paint pen, draw a paint line on the torqued fuel line nut and the adjacent
metal, as shown in the photograph above.
NOTE: New P-clips (1) MUST be installed perpendicular to the bracket (2) and
parallel with each other. Hold P-clips in place during tightening to avoid rotation of
the P-Clips.
16. Torque the two new high pressure fuel rail feed line P-clip bolts to 14 N·m (124
lb·in.). Using a paint pen, draw a paint line on the torqued bolt head and the
adjacent metal, as shown in the notice after step 10.
17. Torque the two new mounting bracket bolts to 30 N·m (22 lb·ft). Using a paint pen,
draw a paint line on the torqued bolt head and the adjacent metal, as shown in the
notice after step 10.
18. Install the bolt for the amplification, needle, and pressure limiting valve return line
triple-clip (1). Torque to 14 N·m (124 lb·in.). Using a paint pen, draw a paint line
on the torqued bolt head and adjacent metal, as shown in the notice after step 10.
19. Inspect all components of the high pressure fuel rail feed line kit to make sure all
fittings and fasteners have been properly installed, torqued and marked with a paint
pen. Have the lead hand or supervisor review the installation and sign off on the
repair order to ensure that all components were properly torqued and painted.
20. If removed for access, install the air cleaner. Refer to the Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM) procedures.
