      Disconnect the fuel tank main tube sub-assembly from the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly.

      1. Pinch the retainer of the fuel tube connector, and then pull the fuel tube connector off of the fuel pipe.

        Note:

        Be sure to disconnect the fuel tube connector by hand.

      2. If the fuel tube connector and fuel pipe are stuck, push and pull the fuel tube connector to release it. Pull the fuel tube connector off of the fuel pipe carefully.

        Note:
        • Be sure to disconnect the fuel tube connector by hand.

        • Do not scratch or allow any foreign matter to get on the parts when disconnecting them as the fuel tube connector has O-rings that seal the pipe (fuel pipe).

        • Do not bend, twist, pinch or kink the nylon tube.

      3. Check that there is no foreign matter on the sealing surfaces of the disconnected fuel lines. Clean them if necessary.

      4. Cover the disconnected fuel pipe and fuel tube connector with plastic bags to prevent damage and contamination.

  8. DISCONNECT NO. 1 FUEL EMISSION TUBE SUB-ASSEMBLY

    Note:

        • Do not scratch or allow any foreign matter to get on the parts when disconnecting them as the fuel tube connector has O-rings that seal the pipe (fuel pipe).

      3. Check that there is no foreign matter on the sealing surfaces of the disconnected fuel lines. Clean them if necessary.

      4. Cover the disconnected fuel pipe and fuel tube connector with plastic bags to prevent damage and contamination.

  9. REMOVE FUEL PUMP GAUGE RETAINER

    Note:

    Before performing these procedures, first cover the connector and fuel tube joint of the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly with vinyl tape and then clean any dirt and foreign matter in order to prevent contamination of the fuel system.

      Paint Mark

      Place paint marks on the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly and vehicle body as shown in the illustration.

      Note:
      • The fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly has a protrusion that engages with notch on the fuel tank assembly to ensure correct alignment and to prevent the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly from turning during installation and removal of the fuel pump gauge retainer.

      • If the fuel pump gauge retainer is turned with the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly misaligned, the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly will turn with the fuel pump gauge retainer and may be damaged.

      • The paint marks are used to ensure that the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly does not turn with the fuel pump gauge retainer.

      Loosen

      Slowly loosen the fuel pump gauge retainer by approximately 90°.

      Note:
      • Do not spin SST too fast or use an impact wrench as this may result in damage to components.

      • As the fuel pipes protrude above the fuel pump gauge retainer, SST should be removed and set as necessary to prevent it from contacting the pipes when removing the fuel pump gauge retainer.

    5. While one person loosens the fuel pump gauge retainer, have another person press down the rising fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly, securely insert the protrusion of the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly into the groove of the fuel tank assembly, and then remove the fuel pump gauge retainer while making sure that the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly is properly aligned.

      Note:
      • The fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly is pressed against the underside of the fuel tank assembly by a spring, and the constant upward pressure applied by this spring causes the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly to rise up.

      • If the fuel pump gauge retainer is turned while the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly and fuel tank assembly are not correctly aligned, the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly will move with the fuel pump gauge retainer, and the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly and fuel tank assembly may both be damaged.

      • Do not turn the fuel pump gauge retainer if the paint marks become misaligned.

      • As the fuel pipes protrude above the fuel pump gauge retainer, SST should be removed and set as necessary to prevent it from contacting the pipes when removing the fuel pump gauge retainer.

  10. REMOVE FUEL SUCTION TUBE WITH PUMP AND GAUGE ASSEMBLY

    1. A322308
