Fuel Line Coupler: Service Precautions
Fuel Line/Quick-Connect Fitting Precautions
The fuel line/quick-connect fittings (A), (B), (C), (D), (E), (F), (G) connect the fuel feed hose (H) to the fuel feed pipe (I), the fuel feed hose (J) to the
fuel feed pipe (K), the fuel feed hose to the fuel tank unit (L), the fuel tank unit to the EVAP canister (M), the EVAP canister to the fuel vapor line (N),
fuel tank vapor recirculation tube (O) to the fuel fill pipe (P), and the fuel fill neck tube (Q) to the fuel fill pipe. When removing or installing the fuel
feed hose, the fuel tank unit, or the fuel tank, it is necessary to disconnect or connect the quick-connect fittings. Pay attention to the following:
-
The fuel feed hoses, the fuel line, and the quick-connect fittings are not heat-resistant; be careful not to damage them during welding or other
heat-generating procedures.
-
The fuel feed hoses, the fuel line, and the quick-connect fittings are not acid-proof; do not touch them with a shop towel that was used for wiping
battery electrolyte. Replace them if they come in contact with electrolyte or something similar.
-
When connecting or disconnecting the fuel feed hoses, the fuel line, and the quick-connect fittings, be careful not to bend or twist them
excessively. Replace them if they are damaged.
