 WARNING 

Fuel is flammable. Keep all cigarettes, flames, pilot lights, arcing equipment, and switches out of the work area and areas sharing ventilation to avoid severe personal injury or death when working on the fuel system.

If equipped, close the fuel shutoff valve before changing the front rail pressure sensor. Failure to do so can cause the overhead tank can to drain, causing a fuel leak.
