Fuel and EVAP Pipe Caution
Fuel and EVAP Pipe Caution
Caution: In order to reduce the risk of fire and personal injury observe the following items:
^
Replace ail nylon fuel pipes that are nicked, scratched or damaged during installation, do not attempt to repair the sections of the nylon fuel
pipes
^
Do not hammer directly on the fuel harness body clips when installing new fuel pipes. Damage to the nylon pipes may result in a fuel leak.
^
Always cover nylon vapor pipes with a wet towel before using a torch near them. Also, never expose the vehicle to temperatures higher than
115°C (239°F) for more than one hour, or more than 90°C (194°F) for any extended period.
^
Apply a few drops of clean engine oil to the male pipe ends before connecting fuel pipe fittings. This will ensure proper reconnection and
prevent a possible fuel leak. (During normal operation, the O-rings located in the female connector will swell and may prevent proper
reconnection if not lubricated.)
Fuel Gauge Leak Caution
Fuel Gauge Leak Caution
Caution: Wrap a shop towel around the fuel pressure connection in order to reduce the risk of fire and personal injury. The towel will absorb any fuel
leakage that occurs during the connection of the fuel pressure gauge. Place the towel in an approved container when the connection of the fuel pressure
gauge is complete.

Fuel Storage Caution
Fuel Storage Caution
Caution: Do not drain the fuel into an open container. Never store the fuel in an open container due to the possibility of a fire or an explosion.
Gasoline/Gasoline Vapors Caution
Gasoline/Gasoline Vapors Caution
Caution: Gasoline or gasoline vapors are highly flammable. A fire could occur if an ignition source is present. Never drain or store gasoline or diesel
fuel in an open container, due to the possibility of fire or explosion. Have a dry chemical (Class B) fire extinguisher nearby.
Lower O-Ring Removal Caution
Lower O-ring Removal Caution
Caution: Verify that the lower (small) O-ring of each injector does not remain in the lower manifold in order to reduce the risk of fire and personal
injury.
If the O-ring is not removed with the injector, the replacement injector with new O-rings will not seat properly in the injector socket. Improper seating
could cause a fuel leak.
