  4. DISCONNECT FUEL TANK RETURN TUBE SUB-ASSEMBLY

    1. A316290E02

      Remove the tube joint clip and pull out the fuel tank return tube sub-assembly.

      Note:
      • Remove any dirt and foreign matter on the fuel tube joint before performing this step.

      • Do not scratch or allow any foreign matter to adhere to the parts when disconnecting them as the fuel tube joint contains the O-rings that seal the plug.

      • Perform this step by hand. Do not use any tools.

      • Do not forcibly bend or twist the nylon tube.

      • Protect the disconnected part by covering it with a plastic bag after disconnecting the fuel tube.

  7. REMOVE TANK SUCTION TUBE SUPPORT

    1. A316289

      Detach the 2 claws and remove the tank suction tube support.

  8. REMOVE FUEL PUMP GAUGE RETAINER

    CAUTION:

    Due to swelling of the fuel tank assembly, the tightening torque of the fuel pump gauge retainer may be as high as 200 N*m (2039 kgf*cm, 148 ft.*lbf), so perform the procedure with at least 2 people.

    Note:

    Before performing these procedures, first cover the connectors and tube joints of the fuel suction with pump and gauge tube assembly with vinyl tape, and then clean away any mud or other substances that may be adhering in order to prevent foreign matter from contaminating the fuel system.

    1. A311302E01

      Temporarily install SST (plate) and SST (claw) to the fuel pump gauge retainer.

    2. A311306E01

      Adjust the position of SST (claw) so that the hole in SST (plate) for installing SST (handle) is in the center of the fuel pump gauge retainer.

    3. A311303E01

      Press SST (claw) against the rib of the fuel pump gauge retainer and tighten SST (bolt).

    5. To make sure SST does not separate from the fuel pump gauge retainer, one person should hold down the center of SST from above while at the same time both people slowly rotate SST (handle), and slowly loosen the fuel pump gauge retainer by approximately 90°.

      Note:
      • Be careful not to apply excessive downward force to SST, as this may damage the fuel suction with pump and gauge tube assembly or fuel tank assembly.

      • Turning SST at an angle may cause it to slip off of the fuel pump gauge retainer, so make sure SST is horizontal when turning it.

      • To prevent damage to parts, do not turn SST too vigorously.

      • If SST slips off of the fuel pump gauge retainer, loosen SST (bolt) and install SST again.

    6. A316360E01

      While one person presses down to prevent the fuel pump gauge retainer and fuel suction with pump and gauge tube assembly from rotating together, the other person should slowly rotate SST (handle) and remove the fuel pump gauge retainer from the fuel tank assembly.

      Slowly Rotate

      CAUTION:

      Make sure not to pinch your hands with SST.

      Note:

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

  9. REMOVE FUEL SUCTION WITH PUMP AND GAUGE TUBE ASSEMBLY

    1. Remove the fuel suction with pump and gauge tube assembly from the fuel tank assembly.

      Note:

      Make sure that the fuel sender gauge assembly arm does not bend.

    2. A171478E06

      Remove the gasket from the fuel tank assembly.
