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-88, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VQ35DE)
or EC-790, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VK45DE).

FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT, FUEL FILTER AND FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
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.
8. Remove main fuel level sensor unit, fuel filter and fuel pump assembly, and sub fuel level sensor unit as
follows:
CAUTION:
Do not bend float arm during removal.
Avoid impacts such as falling when handling components.
a. Removal of main fuel level sensor unit, fuel filter and fuel pump assembly:
i. Remove retainer.
ii. Raise main fuel level sensor unit, fuel filter and fuel pump
assembly, and using snap ring pliers, remove fuel hose connec-
tor.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage fuel hose connector by expanding
them excessively.
b. Removal of sub fuel level sensor unit:
i. Remove retainer.
ii. Raise and release sub fuel level sensor unit to remove.
INSTALLATION
Note to the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.Retainer color: Green

1. Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped), then check connections for leaks by applying fuel pres-
sure to fuel piping.
2. Start engine and let it idle and make sure there are no fuel leaks at the fuel system connections.
ComponentsNBS005RC
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.
