Description of Change: The torque for nuts (1) on the wiring harness assembly for the fuel injector has been increased. The former torque was 1.70 ± 0.25 N·m (15 ± 2 lb in). The specified torque for the nuts has been increased to 2.50 ± 0.25 N·m (22 ± 2 lb in). The increase in torque will help prevent continuity and electrical short problems.
