|
Front Side of Vehicle |
While pressing down on the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly, have another person firmly press the fuel pump gauge retainer against the threads of the fuel tank assembly, and tighten the fuel pump gauge retainer by approximately 180°.
Note
To prevent damage to parts, do not turn SST too vigorously.
Do not turn the fuel pump gauge retainer if the paint marks become misaligned.
Quickly and firmly press down on the part of the fuel pump gauge retainer closest to the front of the vehicle to keep it from rising up.
Tech Tips
If the fuel pump gauge retainer cannot be properly pressed down due to the position of SST, set SST in a different position.
When fully pressing down the fuel pump gauge retainer, there will be a sound or tactile sensation of parts contacting each other, and at this point the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly will stop rising up.
| *a | SST (Plate) |

|
Press Down |
|
Slowly Rotate |
|
Front Side of Vehicle |
While pressing down on the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly, have another person slowly tighten the fuel pump gauge retainer by approximately 270°.
Check the tightening status of the fuel pump gauge retainer.
| *1 | Fuel Pump Gauge Retainer |
| *2 | Fuel Tank Assembly |
| *a | Measurement Position |
| *b | Vernier Caliper |
|
Front Side of Vehicle |
Using a vernier caliper, measure the distance from the fuel tank assembly to the upper surface of the fuel pump gauge retainer at 3 positions as shown in the illustration.
| Standard |
|---|
| Difference between the 3 measured values is 3 mm (0.118 in.) or less. |
Note
If the difference between measurements is approximately 6 mm (0.236 in.), the threads are cross-threaded by 1 row (6 mm (0.236 in.)), so remove and reinstall the fuel pump gauge retainer.

After installing the tube joint clip, make sure the fuel tube joint is secure.
Do not damage any of the clips. If a tube joint clip is damaged, replace it.
CHECK AIRTIGHTNESS
| *a | Vacuum Pump |
| *b | Port B |
Install a vacuum pump to port B of the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly as shown in the illustration.
|
Apply Soapy Water Here |
Apply soapy water to the contact areas between the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly and the fuel pump gauge retainer.
Note
Cover the connecters of the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly with protective tape.
| *a | Port A |
| *b | Port B |
| *c | Vacuum Pump |
Close port A and use the vacuum pump to apply 5 kPa (0.1 kgf/cm2, 1 psi) of compressed air to port B as shown in the illustration.
Note
Do not apply more compressed air than necessary.
Check that the contact areas between the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly and fuel pump gauge retainer are airtight.
Note
If air bubbles appear, remove and reinstall the fuel pump gauge retainer.
After a fuel pump gauge retainer and fuel suction tube set gasket have been used once, replace them with new parts.
When removing and reinstalling the fuel pump gauge retainer, make sure to clean away the soapy water to prevent the fuel suction tube set gasket from slipping out of position and being assembled incorrectly.
Tech Tips
If the assembled components are not airtight due to improper installation of the fuel pump gauge retainer, etc., air bubbles will appear as shown in the illustration.
