Main and Sub Fuel Level Sensor Unit

When installing fuel hose connector insert them fully until a click
sound of full stopper engagement is heard.

Face main and sub fuel level sensor units as shown in the fig-
ure, and install them with the knock pin on back aligned with pin
hole on fuel tank.

Install retainer so that its notch becomes parallel with the notch
on fuel tank.

Tighten retainer mounting bolts evenly.
Quick Connector
Connect quick connector as follows:
1. Check the connection for damage or any foreign materials.
2. Align the connector with the tube, then insert the connector straight into the tube until a click sound is heard.
3. After connecting, make sure that the connection is secure by following method.

Pull the tube and the connector to make sure they are
securely connected.

Visually confirm that the two retainer tabs are connected to
the connector.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Use the following procedure to check for fuel leaks.

1. Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped), then check connections for leaks by applying fuel pres-
sure to fuel piping.
2. Start engine and let it idle and make sure there are no fuel leaks at the fuel system connections.

Disassembly and AssemblyNBS005S3
CAUTION:
Sub fuel level sensor unit cannot be disassembled and should be replaced as a unit.
DISASSEMBLY
Remove fuel level sensor unit as follows.
1. Disconnect harness connector.

Hold connector by fingers and pull it out, because there is no
stopper release tab.
2. Using suitable tool, pull up tabs points as shown in the figure (two points) to release the lock.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage it.
3. After fixing tabs are disengaged, slide fuel level sensor unit out in direction shown by the arrow.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble fuel filter and fuel pump assembly.

ASSEMBLY
1. Check for damage of fuel level sensor unit installation position on the side of fuel filter and fuel pump
assembly.
2. Slide fuel level sensor unit until it aligns to installation groove, then insert it until stop.

After inserting, apply force in reverse direction (removal direction) to ensure it cannot be pulled out.
3. Connect harness connector.

Securely insert harness connector until it stops.

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2006 July 2007 FX35/FX45
HOSE CLAMPING

If old rubber hose is re-used, install hose clamp in its original
position (at the indentation where the old clamp was). If there is
a trace of tube bulging left on the old rubber hose, align rubber
hose at that position.

Discard old clamps; replace with new ones.

After installing plate clamps, apply force to them in the direction
of the arrow, tightening rubber hose equally all around.
Precautions for Engine OilsNAS00066
Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer. Try to avoid direct skin contact
with used oil.
If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner as soon as possible.
HEALTH PROTECTION PRECAUTIONS

Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils, particularly used engine oils.

Wear protective clothing, including impervious gloves where practicable.

Do not put oily rags in pockets.

Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly underpants, with oil.

Heavily soiled clothing and oil-impregnated footwear should not be worn. Overalls must be cleaned regu-
larly.

First aid treatment should be obtained immediately for open cuts and wounds.

Use barrier creams, applying them before each work period, to help the removal of oil from the skin.

Wash with soap and water to ensure all oil is removed (skin cleansers and nail brushes will help). Prepa-
rations containing lanolin replace the natural skin oils which have been removed.

Do not use gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, gas oil, thinners or solvents for cleaning skin.

If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice without delay.

Where practical, degrease components prior to handling.

Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye protection should be worn, for example, chemical goggles or face
shields; in addition an eye wash facility should be provided.
Precautions for the EnvironmentNAS0008A
In servicing the vehicle, it may be necessary to use, dispose of or recycle hazardous, flammable, or poisonous
materials, such as gasoline, refrigerant gas, solvents, oil, oil filter, air bag modules, seat belt pretensioners,
etc. Disposal, recycling, and transportation of any hazardous materials should be performed in compliance
with applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations.
