Freestar V6-4.2L VIN 2 (2004)
Fuel Filler Hose: Technician Safety Information
WARNING:
-
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, resulting in possible personal injury.
-
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, and possibly causing a fire or explosion if fuel vapor or liquid fuel are present in the area. Failure to follow these instructions
can result in personal injury.
-
Fuel in the fuel system remains under high pressure even when the engine is not running. Before repairing or disconnecting any of the
fuel system components, the fuel system pressure must be relieved to prevent accidental spraying of fuel causing personal injury or a fire
hazard.
-
Do not use an open flame to heat the heat shrink tube, only use a heat gun.
