WARNING: WRAP SHOP TOWELS AROUND FUEL
HOSES TO ABSORB ANY FUEL SPILLAGE DURING
FUEL TANK REMOVAL.
(5) Disconnect fuel vent supply and return tubes
from fittings on fuel pump module.
(6) Disconnect fuel pump module electrical harness
connector from main harness.
(7) Using a brass punch and hammer, remove fuel
pump module lock ring by carefully tapping it coun-
terclockwise (Fig. 1).
(8) Remove fuel pump module and O-ring seal.
Discard old O-ring and fuel pump module inlet filter.
DISASSEMBLYÐXJ MODELS
(1) Remove and discard fuel pump inlet filter.
The wire terminals to the fuel pump motor are dif-
ferent in size and cannot be connected to the wrong
terminal.
(2) Disconnect fuel pump terminal wires.
(3) Remove fuel pump outlet hose and clamp. Re-
place the hose if it shows any signs of fatigue or fail-
ure.
(4) Remove fuel pump top mounting bracket nut.
Remove fuel pump (Fig. 2).
ASSEMBLYÐXJ MODELS
Whenever the fuel pump is replaced, the fuel pump
inlet filter (sock) must also be replaced.
(1) Place fuel pump top mounting bracket over top
of pump.
(2) Position fuel pump into lower bracket. Slide
stud of top bracket through hole in fuel pump side
bracket. Tighten fuel pump top mounting nut.
(3) Install new fuel pump outlet hose. Secure with
new clamps.
(4) Connect wire terminals to motor.
(5) Install new fuel pump inlet filter.
INSTALLATIONÐXJ MODELS
Whenever the fuel pump is replaced, the fuel
pump inlet filter must also be replaced.
(1) Install new fuel pump inlet filter onto fuel
pump.
(2) Install fuel pump module assembly and new O-
ring seal. The rubber stopper on the end of the fuel
return tube of the assembly must be inserted into the
cup in the fuel tank reservoir (Fig. 3).

(3) Using a brass punch and a hammer, install
lock ring. Carefully tap lock ring clockwise until it
seats against stop on fuel tank.
(4) Connect fuel supply and return hoses to fittings
on fuel pump module. Tighten hose clamps.
(5) Connect fuel pump module electrical harness
connector to main harness connector.
(6) Lower vehicle.
(7) Fill fuel tank. Install fuel tank cap.
(8) Connect negative battery cable.
(9) Start vehicle and inspect for leaks.
REMOVALÐYJ MODELS
The fuel tank must be removed to remove the fuel
pump module.
WARNING: THE FUEL SYSTEM IS UNDER A CON-
STANT PRESSURE (EVEN WITH THE ENGINE OFF).
BEFORE SERVICING THE FUEL PUMP MODULE,
THE FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE MUST BE RE-
LEASED. REFER TO THE FUEL PRESSURE RE-
LEASE PROCEDURE IN THIS GROUP.
WARNING: EXTINGUISH ALL TOBACCO SMOKING
PRODUCTS BEFORE SERVICING THE FUEL SYS-
TEM. KEEP OPEN FLAME AWAY FROM FUEL SYS-
TEM COMPONENTS.
(1) Remove negative battery cable.
(2) Remove fuel filler cap. Perform the Fuel Pres-
sure Release Procedure as outlined in this group.
(3) Remove fuel tank. Refer to Fuel Tank Remov-
alÐYJ Models.
(4) Remove fuel pump module assembly.
(5) Remove mounting screws. Lift assembly and
gasket out of fuel tank. Discard old gasket (Fig. 4).
(6) Remove and discard fuel pump inlet filter.DISASSEMBLYÐYJ MODELS
