      Tech Tips

      Install SST while pressing the SST claws toward the fuel pump gauge retainer (toward the center of SST).

    4. Install the SST handle.

    5. A019OJT

      Lightly press down on SST to prevent it from separating from the retainer. While pressing SST, rotate the handle slowly to loosen the retainer.

      SST
      09808-14030   ( 09808-01010, 09808-01020, 09808-01030, 09808-01040, 09808-01050 )

      Note


      • Do not use any tools other than specified in this operation. Damage to the fuel pump gauge retainer or the fuel tank may result.

      • Do not press down on SST excessively as this may make the retainer hard to rotate, and may damage components.

      • Make sure to rotate the SST handle horizontally. If the SST handle is rotated at an angle, SST may come off.

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

      • If SST comes off of the retainer, loosen the SST bolts and reinstall SST.

      Tech Tips

      The ribs on the fuel pump gauge retainer can be fitted into the tips of SST.
