5. Disconnect fuel hose quick connector on engine side (The same
apply to the quick connector on vehicle side).
lUsing tool of quick connector release (here in after “release”),
perform the following steps to disconnect quick connector.
a. Remove quick connector cap.
b. With the sleeve side of release facing quick connector, install
release onto fuel tube.
c. Insert release into quick connector until sleeve contacts and
goes no further. Hold the release on that position.
CAUTION:
Inserting the release hard will not disconnect quick connec-
tor. Hold release where it contacts and goes no further.
d. Draw and pull out quick connector straight from fuel tube.
CAUTION:
lPull quick connector holding A position in illustration.
lDo not pull with lateral force applied. O-ring inside quick connector may be damaged.
lPrepare container and cloth beforehand as fuel will leak out.
lAvoid fire and sparks.
lBe sure to cover openings of disconnected pipes with plug or plastic bag to avoid fuel leakage
and entry of foreign materials.
6. Loosen mounting bolts diagonally, and remove electric throttle control actuator.
CAUTION:
Handle carefully to avoid any shock.
7. Disconnect intake manifold collector harness, vacuum hose, and PCV hose.
CAUTION:
lCover engine openings to avoid entry of foreign materials.

Installation of Electric Throttle Control Actuator
lTighten fixing bolts of electric throttle control actuator equally and diagonally in several steps.
lAfter installation perform procedure inEM-20, "INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION".
Connecting Quick Connector of Fuel Hose
lInstall quick connector as follows. (The steps are the same for quick connectors on engine side and vehi-
cle)
1. Make sure no foreign substances are deposited in and around tube and quick connector and no damage
on them.
2. Thinly apply new engine oil around the fuel tube tip end.
3. Align center to insert quick connector straightly into fuel tube.
lInsert fuel tube into quick connector until the first spool on fuel
tubes is inserted completely and the second one is positioned
slightly below the quick connectors bottom end.
CAUTION:
lHold A position in illustration when inserting fuel tube
into quick connector.
lCarefully align center to avoid inclined insertion to pre-
vent damage to O-ring inside quick connector.
lInsert until you hear a “click” sound and actually feel the
engagement.
lTo avoid misidentification of engagement with a similar sound, be sure to perform the next step.
4. Before clamping fuel hose with hose clamps, pull quick connector hard by hand holding A position. Make
sure it is completely engaged (connected) so that it does not come out from fuel tube.
NOTE:
Recommended pulling force is 50 N (5.1 kg, 11.2 lb).
5. Install quick connector cap on quick connector joint.
lDirect arrow mark on quick connector cap to upper side (The
figure shows quick connector cap for engine side).
6. Install fuel hose to hose clamp.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
lCheck connections for fuel leakage.
1. Start the engine, and run it for a few minutes with engine at idle.
2. Stop the engine, and check for fuel leakage both visually and by odor of gasoline.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking on invisible points.
