Tech Tips
Securely insert the ends of SST into the insertion points in the fuel pump gauge retainer.
While firmly pressing the claws of SST into the insertion points in the fuel pump gauge retainer, tighten the bolts of the claws.
Attach the handle of SST.
While lightly pressing down on SST so it does not come off the retainer, slowly turn the handle and remove the fuel pump gauge retainer.
Note
Do not use any tools other than SST, such as a screwdriver, etc.
Do not use excessive force when pressing down on SST, as the fuel pump gauge retainer will place excessive force on the fuel suction tube assembly with pump and gauge and be difficult to remove, and parts may be damaged.
Be sure to keep the handle level when turning it, as SST may slip off the retainer if the handle is turned at an angle with excessive force.
Do not use an impact wrench or turn the handle with excessive force, as parts may be damaged.
If SST slips off the retainer, loosen the bolts and reattach SST to the retainer.
