10. Momentarily touch other end of jumper wire to negative terminal of battery for no more than a few seconds.
11. Place a rag or towel below fuel line quick-connect fitting at fuel rail.
12. Disconnect quick-connect fitting at fuel rail. Refer to Quick-Connect Fittings.
13. Return fuel pump relay to PDC.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - DRAINING FUEL TANK - EXCEPT DIESEL
WARNING: The fuel system may be under constant fuel pressure even with the engine off. This pressure
must be released before servicing fuel tank.
Two different procedures may be used to drain fuel tank: through the fuel fill fitting on tank, or using a diagnostic
scan tool to activate the fuel pump relay. Due to a one-way check valve installed into the fuel fill opening fitting at
the tank, the tank cannot be drained conventionally at the fill cap.
The quickest draining procedure involves removing the rubber fuel fill hose at the fuel tank.
As an alternative procedure, the electric fuel pump may be activated allowingtanktobedrainedatfuelrailcon-
nection. Refer to diagnostic scan tool for fuel pump activation procedures. Before disconnecting fuel line at fuel rail,
release fuel pressure. Refer to the Fuel System Pressure Release Procedure for procedures. Attach end of special
test hose tool number 6631 or 6539 at fuel rail disconnection (tool number 6631isusedon5/16”fuellineswhile
tool number 6539 is used on 3/8” fuel lines). Position opposite end of this hose tool to an approved gasoline drain-
ing station. Activate fuel pump and drain tank until empty.
If electric fuel pump is not operating, fuel must be drained through fuel fill fitting at tank. Refer to following proce-
dures.
1. Release fuel system pressure.
2. Raise vehicle.
3. Thoroughly clean area around fuel fill fitting and rubber fuel fill hoseat tank.
4. If vehicle is equipped with 4 doors and a 6 foot (short) box, remove left-rear tire/wheel.
5. Loosen clamp and disconnect rubber fuel fill hose at tank fitting. Usingan approved gas holding tank, drain fuel
tank through this fitting.

WARNING: The fuel injection pump supplies extremely high fuel pressure toeach individual injector
through the high-pressure lines. Fuel under this amount of pressure can penetrate the skin and cause per-
sonal injury. Wear safety goggles and adequate protective clothing. Do not loosen fuel fittings while engine
is running.
WARNING: Engine may start while cranking starter motor.
DRAINING FUEL TANK - DIESEL
Due to a one-way check valve installed into the fuel fill opening fitting atthe tank, the tank cannot be drained con-
ventionally at the fill cap.
1. Raise vehicle.
2. If vehicle is equipped with 4 doors and a 6 foot (short) box, remove left-rear tire/wheel.
3. Thoroughly clean area at top of fuel tank around fuel tank module.
4. Loosen clamp and disconnect rubber fuel fill hose at tank.
5. Drain fuel tank by attaching drain hose from an approved diesel fuel draining station to the fuel fill fitting of tank.

DESCRIPTION - SRT10
The SRT-10 column has noSTARTposition on the key cylinder. The push starter button switch is mounted on the
Instrument panel center stack. All SRT-10 columns are Tilt columns, Standard cab trucks come with manual trans-
missions, Quad cab trucks come equipped with automatic transmissions.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
STEERING COLUMN
If the vehicle is involved in a front end collision/the air bag has deployedthe column must be inspected. This
inspection will determine if the Column has collapsed. Inspect the columnmounting capsules visually and manually
push and pull them to check for separation or fractures. If capsules are fractured or have moved the column MUST
be replaced.
REMOVAL
WARNING: Before servicing the steering column the airbag system must be disarmed. Refer to electrical
restraint system for service procedures. Failure to do so may result in accidental deployment of the airbag
and possible personal injury.
CAUTION: All fasteners must be torqued to specification to ensure proper operation of the steering column.
1. Position the front wheelsstraight ahead.
2. Disconnect the negative (ground) cable from the battery.
3. Remove the airbag, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RE-
STRAINTS/DRIVER AIRBAG - REMOVAL).
4. Remove the steering wheel (1) with special tool
CJ98–1 (2) or an appropriate steering wheel puller.
(Refer to 19 - STEERING/COLUMN/STEERING
WHEEL - REMOVAL).
CAUTION: Ensure the puller bolts are fully
engaged into the steering wheel and not into the
clockspring, before attempting to remove the
wheel. Failure to do so may damage the steering
wheel/clockspring.

15. Install the steering column opening cover (1) and
kneeblocker (2) (Refer to 23 - BODY/INSTRU-
MENT PANEL/STEERING COLUMN OPENING
COVER - INSTALLATION).
16. Install the negative battery terminal.
17. Test the operation of the horn, Electronic PRNDL
Indicator, lights and any other functions that are
steering column operated.
