Fuel Quick-Connect Fittings: Service Precautions
WARNING:
-
Do not smoke while working on the fuel system. Keep open flames away from your work area.
The fuel tube/quick-connect fittings assembly connects the in-tank fuel pump with the fuel feed pipe. For removing or installing the fuel pump and
fuel tank, it is necessary to disconnect or connect the quick-connect fittings. Pay attention to following:
-
The fuel tube/quick-connect fittings assembly is not heat-resistant; be careful not to damage it during welding or other heat-generating
procedures.
-
The fuel tube/quick-connect fittings assembly is not acid-proof; do not touch it with a shop towel which was used for wiping battery
electrolyte. Replace the fuel tube/quick-connect fittings assembly if it came into contact with electrolyte or something similar.
-
When connecting or disconnecting the fuel tube/quick- connect fittings assembly, be careful not to bend or twist it excessively. Replace it if
damaged.
A disconnected quick-connect fitting can be reconnected, but the retainer on the mating pipe cannot be reused once it has been removed from the
pipe. Replace the retainer when
-
Replacing the fuel pump.
-
Replacing the fuel feed pipe.
-
It has been removed from the pipe.
