REMOVALÐYJ MODELS
The fuel tank must be removed to remove the fuel

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
(1) Remove and discard fuel pump inlet filter (Fig.

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 from
pump.
(3) Remove fuel pump outlet hose and clamp (Fig.

or failure.
(4) Remove fuel pump top mounting bracket nut
(Fig. 6). Remove fuel pump.

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.

GENERAL INFORMATION
All vehicles pass a full 360 degree rollover test
without fuel leakage. To accomplish this, fuel and
vapor flow controls are required for all fuel tank con-
nections.
All models are equipped with a pressure relief/roll-
over valve mounted in the top of the fuel pump mod-
ule. The return line from the fuel pump to the fuel
tank contains a one-way check valve.
An evaporative control system prevents raw fuel
vapor from escaping into the atmosphere. Fuel va-
pors from the fuel tank are collected in the EVAP
canister. When the engine is operating, the vapors
are drawn into the intake manifold to be used in
combustion. Refer to Group 25, Emission Control
System for more information.
Inspect all hose/tube connections for completeness.
Be sure that leaks are not present. Replace any hose
that is cracked, scuffed, swelled, has rubbed against
other vehicle components or shows any other sign of
wear that could lead to failure. If it is necessary to
replace a hose, only hose marked EFM/EFI may be
used.
When installing hoses, be sure that they are routed
away from contact with other vehicle components.
The hose clamps used on fuel injected vehicles are
of a special rolled edge construction to prevent the
edge of the clamp from cutting into the hose. Only
these rolled edge type clamps may be used on this
system. Other types of clamps may cut into the hoses
and cause high pressure fuel leaks.
NO-LEAD FUEL TANK FILLER TUBE
All vehicles are designed to operate using Un-
leaded fuels. The diameter of the opening in the fuel
tank filler neck is sized to only accept unleaded fuel
nozzles. Gasoline station pumps for unleaded and
leaded fuels have different size nozzles. Leaded fuel
nozzles are larger in diameter than unleaded nozzles.
The fuel tank filler neck opening is also equipped
with a deflector, which the smaller unleaded nozzle
pushes back upon entering the filler neck. The de-
flector will prevent the larger diameter leaded fuel
nozzles from entering the filler neck and will deflect
fuel away from the filler neck. This happens if filling
of the tank with leaded fuel is attempted.
A label is attached to the instrument panel under
the fuel gauge that reads UNLEADED FUEL ONLY
as a reminder to the driver. A similar label is located
near the fuel tank filler.
FUEL TANK FILLER TUBE CAP
The loss of any fuel or vapor out of the filler neck
is prevented by the use of a safety filler cap. This
will release only under pressure of 10.9 to 13.45 kPa
(1.58 to 1.95 psi). The vacuum release is between .97
and 2.0 kPa (.14 and .29 psi). This cap must be re-
placed by a similar unit if replacement is necessary.
CAUTION: Remove the fuel tank filler tube cap prior
to removing or repairing fuel lines to relieve fuel
tank pressure.
HEAT SHIELDS
The sheet metal heat shields may have to be re-
moved when servicing the fuel tank, fuel lines or va-
por vent line. The heat shields must be installed to
protect the lines and tank from the heat of the ex-
haust system. Refer to Group 11, Exhaust System
and Intake Manifold for proper installation.

WARNING: THE FUEL SYSTEM IS UNDER CON-
STANT FUEL PRESSURE (EVEN WITH THE ENGINE
