IMPORTANT:
During the int erventi on on the fuel tank
and on the fuel supply circuit, at t he working
place, do not smoke and do not bring near
an y incandescent parts.
Fuel tank draining i s not implying tank
dismountin g. The access is allowed through the
vehicle interior (trunk).
Dismo unt :
-tr unk carpet;
-v isitin g whole cover (by dismounting the
three attachment screws);
- disconnect the rapid coupling A;
- adjust to exit A, an enough long hose to
be introduced in a vessel outside the vehicle.
From the fuse box located inside the engine
compartment, remove the H relay of the petrol
pump and bridge across plugs 3 and 5 of the
relay connector, ensuring the petrol pump
working (12V).
Stop the pum p working when petrol
discontin uous draining s noticed.
Detach the plugs bridge.
Mount the petrol pump relay.

FILLING CAP
Fuel tank
The fuel tank is having a filling cap, sealed-type, with key. The filling cap for unleaded fuel has
a filler whole incompatible with a c lassical filling gun (lead has a negative effect upon the de-
pollution system : oxygen sensor and catalyst).
In case of vehicle overturning, the anti-overturning valve is getting blocked, avoiding in this
wa y, the petrol leakage towards the carbon can.

DISMOUNTIN G
Drain the fuel tank ( 4)
Disconnect the battery.
Remove the trunk carpet.
Di smount the tank visiting cover from the
three attachment screws.
Di sconnect the e lectric connector f the fuel
pump assembly a nd detach from clips the
connection from the fuel supply pipe. Take out the spare wheel and release it
together with its support.
Remove the filling cap ( 2) and dismount the
two attachment screws of the upper filling cap.
Lift the vehicle on a two columns elevator.
Dismount the four-attachment screws (6) of
the fuel tank on the carriage body, then maintained
in tilted position, disconnect the rapid coupling
on the anti-overturning valve ( 7).
D etach from clips collar ( 3) of the aerating
pipe on the upper filling cap.
Release the fuel tank together with the aerating
connection. Dismount the thermal screen ( 5) off the three
maintaining clips. Dismount the attachment clip ( 1) of the filling
cap muff on the lower filling cap.
Dism ount t he fue l pum p a sse mbly by
dismounting the attachment nut by means of the
MOT 1397 device.
REMOUNTIN G
Perform the dismounting operatio ns in the
reverse order. The t ightening moment of t he fuel tank
attachment screws on the carriage body is of
2.1 daNm and the tightening moment for fuel
pump assembly attachment nut, is of minimal
7daNm .
REMARK :
Collar (1) is for single use only.
When remounting, use a new click collar
(1 ), for the attachmen t of the lower filling cap
connection on the fuel tank.
REMARK:
At remonting, for each 2 back screws
at t ac he ment fue l tank, ap l y 0.002 kg
FIXAMED M 28, for to realise security

IMPORTANT :
Dur ing thi s operation it is
compulsory:
-not smoking and not approaching
with i ncandescent obj ects in t he working
area, -keep awa y from fue l spray i ng
when disc onn ectin g the fu el
connections, protect the sensitive area of
fuel leak.
Dismount :
- protection shield ( 3);
- filling cap attachment clip (5) on tank;
- fuel pump assembly (6).
REMOU NT I NG
Perform the di smounting opera tions in the
reverse order.
Tighten to the required moment the fuel tank
attachment screws (2.1 daNm); the thread of
the two rear attachmen t screws is to be lubricated
before mounting with Fixamed M28 (necessary
quantity – 2 grams).
Re p lace the single use clip ( 5) with a tightening
clip “CAILLAU” .

DISMOUNTIN G
Place the vehi c le on a t wo-c ol um n
elevator. Disconnect the battery (-) terminal.
Dismount the fuel tank cap.
Drain the fuel tank through the filling cap,
by means of a draining pneumatic or electric
pump. Dismount the a ttachments screws ( 1) of
the upper filling cap.
Lift the vehicle by means of the elevator.
Di smount the four attachment screws of
the fuel tank. Dismount the attachment clip ( 2) of the
aeration hose ( 4) on filling cap.
Carefully lower the tank and disconnect it:
- wiring connector;
- fuel supply pipe;
- petrol vapors re-aspiration pipe (for
petrol engines); - fuel return pipe (for Diesel engines);
Extract the aera tion hose on top of tank
crossbar and dismount the tank.

Safety valve ( over pressure, depression)
In case recyclin g circuit of the petrol vapors is clogged, this valve is avoiding the over-pressure
(inflated tank) or the depression (by fuel consumption- the tank is flattening).
Restrictor
Does not allow leaded fuel filling in the tank.
Anti-overturning valve
In case of vehicle overturning, this is avoiding the fuel leakage through the pipe leading to the
carbon can.
