Checking Fuel LinesNBS004IG
Inspect fuel lines, fuel filler cap and fuel tank for improper attach-
ment, leaks, cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing or deterio-
ration.
If necessary, repair or replace damaged parts.
General PrecautionsNBS004IH
WARNING:
When replacing fuel line parts, be sure to observe the following.

Put a “CAUTION: FLAMMABLE” sign in the workshop.

Be sure to work in a well ventilated area and furnish workshop with a CO2 fire extinguisher.

Do not smoke while servicing fuel system. Keep open flames and sparks away from the work area.
CAUTION:

Use gasoline required by the regulations for octane number. Refer to GI-6, "Precautions for Fuel
(Unleaded Premium Gasoline Recommended)" .

Before removing fuel line parts, carry out the following procedures:
–Put drained fuel in an explosion-proof container and put the lid on securely. Keep the container in
safe area.
–Release fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-86, "FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VQ35DE)
or EC-746, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VK45DE).
–Disconnect negative battery terminal.

Always replace O-ring and clamps with new ones.

Do not kink or twist tubes when they are being installed.

Do not tighten hose clamps excessively to avoid damaging hoses.

After connecting fuel tube quick connectors, make sure
quick connectors are secure.
Ensure that connector and resin tube do not contact any
adjacent parts.

After installing tubes, make sure there is no fuel leakage at
connections in the following steps.
–Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines with turning ignition switch
“ON” (with engine stopped). Then check for fuel leaks at
connections.
–Start engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at con-
nections.

Use only a genuine NISSAN fuel filler cap as a replacement.
If an incorrect fuel filler cap is used, the “MIL” may come
on.

For servicing “Evaporative Emission System” parts, refer to
EC-39, "
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM" (VQ35DE) or
EC-699, "
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM" (VK45DE).

For servicing“On Board Refueling Vapor Recovery (ORVR)”
parts, refer to EC-46, "
ON BOARD REFUELING VAPOR
RECOVERY (ORVR)" (VQ35DE) or EC-706, "ON BOARD
REFUELING VAPOR RECOVERY (ORVR)" (VK45DE).

REMOVAL
WARNING:
Read “General Precautions” when working on the fuel system. Refer to FL-3, "
General Precautions" .
1. Check fuel level on fuel gauge. If fuel gauge indicates more than the level as shown in the figure (full or almost full), drain fuel
from fuel tank until fuel gauge indicates level as shown in the fig-
ure or below.
NOTE:
Because fuel will be spilled when removing main and sub fuel
level sensor units for the top of the fuel is above the main and
sub fuel level sensor units installation surface.

As a guide, fuel level becomes the position as shown in the
figure or below when approximately 20 (5-1/4 US gal, 4-3/8
Imp gal) of fuel are drained from fuel tank.

In a case that fuel pump does not operate, perform the follow-
ing procedure.
a. Insert hose of less than 25 mm (0.98 in) in diameter into fuel filler tube through fuel filler opening to draw fuel from fuel filler tube.
b. Disconnect fuel filler hose from fuel filler tube. Refer to FL-10, "
FUEL TANK" .
c. Insert fuel tube into fuel tank through fuel filler hose to draw fuel from fuel tank.
2. Release the fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-86, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VQ35DE)
or EC-746, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VK45DE).

3. Open fuel filler lid.
4. Open filler cap and release the pressure inside fuel tank.
5. Remove rear seat cushion. Refer to SE-105, "
REAR SEAT" .
6. Peel off floor carpet, then remove inspection hole cover for main and sub fuel level sensor units by turning clips clockwise by 90
degrees.
7. Disconnect harness connector and fuel feed tube.
Disconnect quick connector as follows:

Hold the sides of connector, push in tabs and pull out tube.

If quick connector sticks to tube of main fuel level sensor unit,
push and pull quick connector several times until they start to
move.Then disconnect them by pulling.

FRONT SUSPENSION ASSEMBLYPFP:54010
On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceNES000I3
Make sure the mounting conditions (looseness, back lash) of each component and component conditions
(wear, damage) are normal.
INSPECTION LOWER BALL JOINT END PLAY
1. Set front wheels in a straight-ahead position. Do not depress brake pedal.
2. Place an iron bar or similar tool between transverse link and steering knuckle.
3. Measure axial end play by prying it up and down.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage ball joint boot.
STRUT INSPECTION

Check strut for oil leakage, damage and replace if there are. Refer to FSU-11, "COIL SPRING AND
STRUT" .
Wheel Alignment InspectionNES000I4
DESCRIPTION

Measure wheel alignment under unladen conditions.
NOTE:
Unladen conditions mean that fuel, engine coolant, and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and
mats are designated positions.
PRELIMINARY CHECK

Check tires for improper air pressure and wear.

Check road wheels for runout.

Check wheel bearing axial end play.

Check ball joint axial end play of compression rod, upper link, and steering knuckle

Check shock absorber operation.

Check each mounting part of axle and suspension for looseness and deformation.

Check each link, rod and member for cracks, deformation and other damage.

Check vehicle posture.
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

A four-wheel thrust alignment should be performed.
–This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN/INFINITI vehicle.
–The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel is
centered.
–The alignment rack itself should be capable of accepting any NISSAN/INFINITI vehicle.
–The rack should be checked to ensure that it is level.

Make sure the machine is properly calibrated.
–Your alignment equipment should be regularly calibrated in order to give correct information.
–Check with the manufacturer of your specific equipment for their recommended Service/Calibration
Schedule. Axial end play : 0 mm (0 in)

Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
Precautions for Fuel (Unleaded Premium Gasoline Required)NAS00063
Use unleaded premium gasoline with an octane rating of at least 91 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) number (Research
octane number 96).
If unleaded premium gasoline is not available, unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rating of at least 87
AKI number (Research octane number 91) can be used, but only under the following precautions:

have the fuel tank filled only partially with unleaded regular gasoline, and fill up with unleaded premium
gasoline as soon as possible.

avoid full throttle driving and abrupt acceleration.
However, for maximum vehicle performance, the use of unleaded premium gasoline is recommended.
CAUTION:
Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded gasoline will damage the three way catalyst. Do not use E-85
fuel (85% fuel ethanol, 15% unleaded gasoline) unless the vehicle is specifically designed for E-85 fuel
(i.e. Flexible Fuel Vehicle - FFV models). Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect
the emission control devices and systems, and could also affect the warranty coverage validity.
Precautions for Multiport Fuel Injection System or Engine Control SystemNAS00064

Before connecting or disconnecting any harness connector for
the multiport fuel injection system or ECM:
Turn ignition switch to “OFF” position.
Disconnect negative battery terminal.
Otherwise, there may be damage to ECM.

Before disconnecting pressurized fuel line from fuel pump to
injectors, be sure to release fuel pressure.

Be careful not to jar components such as ECM and mass air
flow sensor.
Precautions for HosesNAS00065
HOSE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

To prevent damage to rubber hose, do not pry off rubber hose
with tapered tool or screwdriver.

To reinstall the rubber hose securely, make sure that hose inser-
tion length and orientation is correct. (If tube is equipped with
hose stopper, insert rubber hose into tube until it butts up
against hose stopper.)
