Fuel Filter Replacement
The fuel filter should be replaced whenever the fuelpressure drops belowthe specified value {270 320 kpa,2.8 3.3 kgf lcm', 40 47 psi), after making sure that thefuel pump and the fuel pressure regulator are OK.
1. Remove the fuel pump(seepagell-'153).

base gasket (B) and a new o-ring (C), then check
these items:
' When connecting the wire harness, make sure
the connection is secure and the terminal (D) is

Fuel Gauge Sending Unit Test
Special Tools Required
Fuel sender wrench 07XAA-001010A
NOTE; For the fuel gauge system circuit diagram, referto the Gauges Circuit Diagram (see page 22-58||.
1. Checkthe No. 10 fUETER {7.5A)fuse in the under-
dash fuse/relay box before testing.
2. Do the gauge drive circuit check (see page 22-56|l.
' lf the fuel gauge needle sweeps from minimuni
to maximum position and then returns to the
minimum position. the gauge is OK. Go to step 3.. lf the fuel gau ge need le does not sweep from
minimum to maximum position position and
then return to the minimum position, replace thegauge assembly and retest.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Remove the rear seat cushion {see page 20-80).
5. Remove the access panel (A)from the floor.
6. Disconnect the fuel pump 5P connector {B).

7. Measure voltage between fuel pump 5P connectorterminals No. 1 and No. 2 with the ignition switchON (ll). There should be battery voltage.
. lf the voltage is as specified, go to step 8.. lf the voltage is notasspecified,checkfor:
- an open in the YEUBLK or BLK wire.- poor ground (G551).

Turn the ignition switch OFF. Remove the No. 9BACK UP (7.5A)fuse from the under-hood fuse/
relay box for at least 10 seconds, lhen reinstall it.
Install a 2 Q resistor between fuel pump 5P
connector lerminals No. 1 and No. 2, then turn the
ignition switch ON (ll).

10. Checkthatthe pointerof thefuel gauge indicates"F".
. lf the pointer does not indicate "F", replace the
ga uge.. lf the pointer indicates "F", inspect the fuel
gauge sending unit.
NOTE: The pointer of the fuel gauge retu rns to the
bottom of the gauge dial when the ignition switch
is OFF, regardless of the fuel level. -
11. Relieve the fuel pressure (see page 11-144\.
12. Remove the fuelfill cap.
13. Disconnect the quick-connect fittings from the fuel
pump.
14. Using the special tool, loosen the fuel tank unit
locknut (A).
A93Nm{9.5 ksf.m,69 lbf.ft}
15. Measure resistance between the No. 1 and No.2
terminals with the float at E (EN4PTY), 'l12 \HALF
FULL), and F {FULL) positions.
lf you do not get the following readings, replace the
fuel gauge sending unit {see page 1'1-163).

NOTE: Remove the No. 9 BACK UP (7.5A) fuse from
the under-hood fuse/relay box for at least 10
seconds after completing troubleshooting,
otherwise it may take up to 20 minutes for the fuel
gauge to indicate the correct fuel level.
