Procedures:
1 Prime the fuel system using a Detroit-approved priming unit.
Note : It is important that the road test is performed to purge the remaining air from the system after priming.
2 Disconnect the chassis-side fuel supply and return lines from the fuel filter module.
3 Using the appropriate adaptors from the W470589039100 Fuel System Tool Update Kit, install the two J-48708 Fuel Flow test lines onto the fuel filter module. Connect the other end of the test lines to the J-48708 fuel flow container. Container should have enough fuel to run a Fuel System Integrity Check (FSIC) and still have at least two liters (2.11 qt.) of fuel remaining.
Note:Do not move or otherwise disturb the Fuel System Update kit and the lines during the next two steps to ensure the ends of the lines remain submerged in fuel.
4 Prime the fuel system using the hand-priming pump.
5 Connect DiagnosticLink to the vehicle, access the Service Routines section, select the Fuel System Integrity Check (FSIC) tab and run the Automatic FSIC
