Removal and Installation
WARNING:
-
The evaporative emissions system contains fuel vapor and condensed fuel vapor. Although not present in large quantities, it still presents
the danger of explosion or fire. Disconnect the battery ground cable from the battery to minimize the possibility of an electrical spark
occurring, which can cause a fire or explosion if fuel vapor or liquefied fuel are present in the area. Failure to follow these instructions
can result in personal injury.
-
Do not smoke or carry lighted tobacco or open flame of any type when working on or near any fuel related component. Highly flammable
mixtures are always present and may be ignited. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
1. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist.
2. Disconnect the battery ground cable.
3. Disconnect the 2 fuel vapor hoses from the dust separator.
4. Slide the dust separator out of the retainer clip in the emission canister bracket.
5. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
