FUEL SYSTEM Installation note Fuel hoses and fuel filler hoses Push the ends of the main fuel hose, fuel return hose, and evaporation hose onto the fuel tank fittings L at least 25mm (1.0 in). Push the fuel filler hose onto the fuel tank pipe and filler pipe at least 35117171 (1.4 in). Power plant frame Install the power plant frame referring to the installation procedure on section J. FUEL FILTER Replacement Low-pressure side (In-tank filter) (Refer to page F-116.) High-pressure side The fuel filter must be replaced at the intervals outlined in the maintenance schedule. Warning Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can very easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep sparks and flames away from fuel. Warning Fuel line spills and leaks are dangerous. Fuel can ~SJOFX-226 ignite and cause serious injuries or death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the "Fuel Line Safety Procedures" on page F-108. 1. Raise the rear of the vehicle and support it with safety stands. 2. Remove the fuel filter protector. 3. Disconnect the fuel hoses from the fuel filter. 4. Remove the fuel filter and bracket. 5. Install in the reverse order of removal. 6. Verify that the fuel hoses are pushed fully onto the fuel filter nipples. Tightening torque: 7.9-10.7 N.m (80-110 kgfam, 70-95.4 in-lbf) Gartner Banana

CHARGING SYSTEM 1. Disconnect the battery cables from the battery. 2. Connect a voltmeter to the battery. BATTERY Warning Hydrogen gas is produced during normal battery d operation. A battery-related explosion can cause serious injury. Keep all flames (including ciga- rettes), heat, and sparks away from the top and surrounding area of open battery cells. Caution To prevent damage to electrical components or the battery, turn all accessories off and stop the engine before performing maintenance or re- charging the battery. Caution Obtain the code number and deactivate the audio anti-theft system before disconnecting the bat- tery. (Refer to section T.) Inspection Caution When disconnecting the battery, remove the neg- ative cable first and install it last to prevent dam- age to electrical components or the battery. Gartner Banana
