PURPOSE: This bulletin provides a procedure for installing the fuel tank fill cap holder retainer to the fuel fill door on the above mentioned vehicles, at customer's request.
1. Using a bench grinder, remove shaded areas of plastic from rearside of fuel tank fill cap holder retainer (P/N 21110502). This makes the rearside of the fuel tank fill cap holder retainer flush.
2. Clean surface of inner side of fuel door and rearside of fuel tank fill cap holder retainer with isopropyl alcohol to ensure adhesion of double sided foam tape to both surfaces.
3. Apply 3M SCOTCH-MOUNT Super Automotive Attachment Tape (P/N 06383) or equivalent double sided foam tape, to the rearside of the fuel tank fill cap holder retainer.
4. To determine vertical placement of fuel tank fill cap holder retainer on fuel door, measure 6 mm (1/4 in.) up from "Unleaded Fuel Only" decal placement marks on fuel door, and mark the location.
5. Remove backing paper from foam tape and position fuel tank fill cap holder retainer on fuel door with the bottom aligned with the mark made in step 4. The left edge of the fuel tank fill cap holder retainer will touch tab of fuel door as shown.
6. Press fuel tank fill cap holder retainer firmly in place on fuel door to ensure adhesion. Make sure not to exert too much pressure to prevent deforming fuel door.

Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition.
