Fuel Tube / Quick – Connect Fittings
Precautions
Lighting of Fires Prohibited.
Keep flames away from your work area to prevent the
inflammable from catching fire.
Disconnect the battery negative cable to prevent
shorting during work.
When welding or conducting other heat-generating
work on other parts, be sure to provide pretreatment
to protect the piping system from thermal damage or
spattering.
Cautions During Work
Do not expose the assembly to battery electrolyte or do
not wipe the assembly with a cloth used to wipe off spilt
battery electorolyte.
The piping wet with battery electrolyte cannot be used.
Be careful not to give a bending or twisting force to the
piping during the work. If deformed, replace with a new
piping.
Removal
1. Open the fuel cap to relieve the fuel pressure in the
tank.
If the fuel quick-connect fittings are dusty, clean with
an air blower, etc. and then remove it.
141RW016As some pressure may remain in the piping, cover the
connector with a cloth, etc. to prevent the splashing
of fuel in the first disconnection of the piping.
