Caution: Wear safety glasses when using compressed air in order to prevent eye injury.

Caution: Place a dry chemical (Class B) fire extinguisher nearby before performing any on-vehicle service procedures. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury.

Caution: Remove the fuel tank cap and relieve the fuel system pressure before servicing the fuel system in order to reduce the risk of personal injury. After you relieve the fuel system pressure, a small amount of fuel may be released when servicing the fuel lines, the fuel injection pump, or the connections. In order to reduce the risk of personal injury, cover the fuel system components with a shop towel before disconnection. This will catch any fuel that may leak out. Place the towel in an approved container when the disconnection is complete.

Notice: Cap the fittings and plug the holes when servicing the fuel system in order to prevent dirt and other contaminants from entering the open pipes and passages.

Important: Always maintain cleanliness when servicing fuel system components.

1. Relieve the fuel system pressure. Refer to Fuel Pressure Relief .



2. Grasp both sides of the quick-connect fitting. Twist the quick-connect fitting ¼ turn in each direction in order to loosen any dirt within the fitting.
3. Repeat the procedure for the other fuel pipe fitting.



4. Use compressed air at both ends of the fitting in order to blow any dirt from the quick-connect fittings.



5. Squeeze the plastic tabs on the male end connector.



6. Pull the connection apart.

Repeat the procedure for the other fitting.

7. Use a clean shop towel in order to wipe off the male pipe end.
8. Clean or replace the components/assemblies as required.

Caution: Always apply a few drops of clean engine oil to the male pipe ends before connecting the fuel pipe fittings in order to reduce the risk of fire and personal injury. 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.

1. Apply a few drops of clean oil to the male pipe end.



2. Push both sides of the quick-connect fitting together in order to cause the retaining tabs/fingers to snap into place.



3. Pull on both sides of the quick connect fitting in order to make sure the connection is secure.
4. Tighten the fuel filler cap.
5. Reconnect negative battery cable.
6. Inspect for fuel leaks.
