(c) While lightly pushing down on SST (fuel pump retainer tool assy), tighten the fuel pump gauge retainer by 1 and a half turns so that the triangle mark on the fuel pump gauge retainer is positioned between the "SERVICE" range on the fuel tank assembly.

NOTICE:

  • Do not use any tools other than specified as this may result in damage to the fuel pump gauge retainer or fuel tank assembly.
  • Do not push down on SST (fuel pump retainer tool assy) excessively as this may make the fuel pump gauge retainer hard to rotate, and may damage components.
  • Make sure to turn the breaker bar horizontally. If it is turned at an angle, SST (fuel pump retainer tool assy) may come off.
  • Do not spin SST (fuel pump retainer tool assy) too fast or use an impact wrench as this may damage components.
  • If SST (fuel pump retainer tool assy) comes off of the fuel pump gauge retainer, loosen SST (bolt and washer set) and reinstall SST (fuel pump retainer tool assy).

HINT:

While pushing down on SST (fuel pump retainer tool assy), turn the fuel pump gauge retainer clockwise to tighten. Make sure that the detent of the tank suction tube support does not move out of the groove of the fuel tank assembly.

3. CONNECT FUEL TANK MAIN TUBE SUB-ASSEMBLY

(a) Push the fuel tube joint onto the plug of the fuel suction plate sub-assembly, then install the tube joint clip.

NOTICE:

  • Check that there are no scratches or foreign matter around the connecting parts of the fuel tube joint and plug before performing this work.
  • Check that the fuel tube joint is securely inserted to the end.

4. CHECK AIRTIGHTNESS

(a) After installing the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly, check for fuel leaks by first applying soapy water to the area where the fuel suction plate sub-assembly and fuel pump gauge retainer contact, and then blow forcefully into the fuel inlet area through a flexible pouring spout or similar tube.

(b) Blow forcefully until the reverse flow prevention valve inside the fuel inlet activates.

NOTICE:

Be careful not to inhale any fuel vapor.

HINT:

There should be a faintly audible sound when the reverse flow prevention valve operates.

(c) If improper installation of the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly, etc. has resulted in a condition where fuel will leak, air will leak out as shown in the illustration.

NOTICE:

If air leaks out, recheck the installation condition, and replace the fuel pump gauge retainer and fuel suction tube set gasket with new ones. Also, make sure to fully wipe away the soapy water. (Any remaining soapy water can cause the fuel suction tube set gasket to slip and result in an improper seal.)
