CAUTION:

Quick connector can be disconnected when the tabs
are completely depressed. Do not twist it more than
necessary.

Do not use any tools to disconnected quick connector.

Keep resin tube away from heat. Be especially careful
when welding near the resin tube.

Prevent acid liquid such as battery electrolyte, etc.
from getting on resin tube.

Do not bend or twist resin tube during installation and
disconnection.

Do not remove the remaining retainer on hard tube (or
the equivalent) except when resin tube or retainer is
replaced.

When resin tube or hard tube (or the equivalent) is
replaced, also replace retainer with new one.

To keep the connecting portion clean and to avoid
damage and foreign materials, cover them completely
with plastic bags or something similar.

sound of full stopper engagement is heard.
Main and Sub Fuel Level Sensor Unit

Face main and sub fuel level sensor units as shown in the fig-
ure, and install them with the knock pin on back aligned with pin
hole on fuel tank.

on fuel tank.

Tighten retainer mounting bolts evenly.
Quick Connector
Connect quick connector as follows:
1. Check the connection for damage or any foreign materials.
2. Align the connector with the tube, then insert the connector straight into the tube until a click sound is
heard.
3. After connecting, make sure that the connection is secure by following method.

Pull the tube and the connector to make sure they are
securely connected.

Visually confirm that the two retainer tabs are connected to
the connector.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Use the following procedure to check for fuel leaks.

Disassembly and AssemblyNBS005RD
CAUTION:
Sub fuel level sensor unit cannot be disassembled and should be replaced as a unit.
DISASSEMBLY
Remove fuel level sensor unit as follows.
1. Disconnect harness connector.

Hold connector by fingers and pull it out, because there is no
stopper release tab.
2. Using suitable tool, pull up tabs points as shown in the figure
(two points) to release the lock.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage it.
3. After fixing tabs are disengaged, slide fuel level sensor unit out
in direction shown by the arrow.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble fuel filter and fuel pump assembly.

THE ALIGNMENT PROCESS
IMPORTANT:
Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual.

When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment machines use “indicators”: (Green/red, plus or
minus, Go/No Go). Do NOT use these indicators.
–The alignment specifications programmed into your machine that operate these indicators may not be cor-
rect.
–This may result in an ERROR.

Some newer alignment machines are equipped with an optional “Rolling Compensation” method to “com-
pensate” the sensors (alignment targets or head units). DO NOT use this “Rolling Compensation”
method.
–Use the “Jacking Compensation Method”. After installing the alignment targets or head units, raise the
vehicle and rotate the wheels 1/2 turn both ways.
–See Instructions in the alignment machine you're using for more information on this.
INSPECTION OF CAMBER, CASTER AND KINGPIN INCLINATION ANGLES

Camber, caster, kingpin inclination angles cannot be adjusted.

Before inspection, mount front wheels onto turning radius gauge. Mount rear wheels onto a stand that has
same height so vehicle will remain horizontal.
Using a CCK Gauge
Install the CCK gauge attachment [SST: KV991040S0 ( – )] with the following procedure on wheel, then
measure wheel alignment.
1. Remove three wheel nuts, and install the guide bolts to hub bolt.
2. Screw the adapter into the plate until it contacts the plate tightly.
3. Screw the center plate into the plate.
4. Insert the plate assembly on the guide bolt. Put the spring in,
and then evenly screw the three guide bolt nuts. When fastening
the guide nuts, do not completely compress the spring.
5. Place the dent of alignment gauge onto the projection of the
center plate and tightly contact them to measure.
CAUTION:

If camber, caster, or kingpin inclination angle is outside
the standard, check front suspension parts for wear and
damage. Replace suspect parts if a malfunction is
detected.

Kingpin inclination angle is reference value, no inspec-
tion is required.
