Removal Procedure
Caution: Whenever fuel line fittings are loosened or removed, wrap a shop cloth around the fitting and have an approved container available to
collect any fuel.
Notice: Clean all fuel pipe and hose connections and surrounding areas before disassembling to avoid possible contamination of the fuel system.
Spray the fuel pump module cam-lock ring tang with penetrating oil prior to attempting removal.
1. Remove the fuel tank.
2. Remove the secondary fuel pump module.
3. Disconnect the electrical connectors from the primary fuel pump module and fuel tank pressure sensor.
Notice: Avoid damaging the lock ring. Use only J-45722 to prevent damage to the lock ring. Do Not handle the fuel sender assembly by the fuel
pipes. The amount of leverage generated by handling the fuel pipes could damage the joints.
Important: Do NOT use impact tools. Significant force will be required to release the lock ring. The use of a hammer or screwdriver is not
recommended. Secure the fuel tank in order to prevent fuel tank rotation.
