Frequently Asked Questions

Product

What is the purpose of the 3116342 fuel pressure sensor?

The 3116342 fuel pressure sensor monitors the pressure of fuel within the fuel system and sends that information to the engine control module (ECM). This helps the machine’s control system adjust fuel delivery for efficient combustion, optimal performance, and reduced emissions.

Here’s a general guide for proper installation:

  1. Turn off the engine and disconnect the power source before beginning.
  2. Relieve fuel system pressure according to your equipment’s service manual.
  3. Locate the old fuel pressure sensor on the fuel rail or line and disconnect the electrical connector.
  4. Carefully unscrew the old sensor from the port.
  5. Apply a small amount of appropriate thread sealant (if required) and install the new 3116342 sensor.
  6. Tighten to the torque specified in your service documentation.
