Note: Read "Precautions for Fuel System Fuel Line Quick Connectors" before working on fuel lines and connections.
1. Relieve fuel pressure.
2. Check for dirt on the fuel line quick-release connector A and clean it if necessary.
3. Wrap a piece of cloth or paper towel around the fuel line quick-disconnect fitting A. Hold the fitting A with one hand and squeeze the locking tabs B with the other hand to release them from the locks C. Pull the fitting and remove it.
Note: Be careful not to damage the D tube or other parts. Do not use tools.
If the connector does not come off, hold down the locking tabs and move the connector back and forth alternately until it comes off easily.
Do not remove the clamp from the pipeline; if removed, the retainer must be replaced.
4. Check the connection area A of pipe B to ensure there is no dirt or damage.
- If the connection is dirty, clean it with steam and dry it with compressed air.
- If the surface is rusty or damaged, replace the fuel filter or fuel rail.
5. To prevent damage or entry of foreign objects, close the disconnected pipe connector and the ends of the tubes with plastic plugs A.
Note: The retaining clip cannot be reused once removed from the tube.
Replace the retaining clip when:
- fuel rail replacement;
- fuel line replacement;
- fuel pump replacement;
- fuel filter replacement;
- replacing the fuel level meter transmitting unit;
- if it was removed from the tube;
- if it is damaged.
