Removal Procedure
- Remove the fuel injector sight shield. Refer to Fuel Injector Sight Shield Replacement.
- Disconnect the quick-connect fittings at the intake manifold and the EVAP canister purge valve. Refer to Plastic Collar Quick Connect Fitting Service.
- Remove the EVAP pipe.
- Cap the intake manifold pipe and the EVAP canister purge valve in order to prevent possible contamination.
Warning: In order to reduce the risk of fire and personal injury observe the following items:
• Replace all 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.)
Installation Procedure
- Remove the caps from the intake manifold pipe and the EVAP canister purge valve.
- Install the EVAP pipe to the intake manifold and the EVAP canister purge valve.
- Install the fuel injector sight shield. Refer to Fuel Injector Sight Shield Replacement.
