REMOVAL
WARNING:
Follow the “General Precautions” before working on the fuel system. Refer to GI-3, "
General Precau-
tion" .
1. Drain the fuel from the fuel tank, if necessary.
• Position the vehicle so it is level.
2. Remove the fuel filler cap to release the pressure from inside the fuel tank.
3. Check the fuel level on level gauge. If the fuel gauge indicates
more than the level as shown (full or almost full), drain the fuel
from the fuel tank until the fuel gauge indicates the level as
shown, or less.
• If the fuel pump does not operate, use the following procedure
to drain the fuel to the specified level after disconnecting the
fuel filler hose from the fuel filler pipe.
a. Insert a suitable hose of less than 15 mm (0.59 in) diameter into
the fuel filler pipe through the fuel filler opening to drain the fuel
from fuel filler pipe.
b. Insert a suitable hose into the fuel tank through the fuel filler
hose to drain the fuel from the fuel tank.
• As a guide, the fuel level reaches the fuel gauge position as shown, or less, when approximately 14
liters (3 3/4 US gal, 3 1/8 Imp gal) of fuel are drained from the fuel tank.
4. Remove the LH rear wheel and tire. Refer to WT-7, "
Rotation" .
5. Remove the four clips and remove the rear fender protector, front.
6. Disconnect the fuel filler hose from the fuel filler pipe and dis-
connect the vent hose quick connector.
7. Release the fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-80, "
Fuel Pressure Check" .
8. Disconnect the battery negative terminal.
9. Remove the second row LH seat and the third row LH seat. Refer to SE-89, "
Removal and Installation"
(second row), SE-95, "LH Side Seat" (third row).
10. Remove the second and third row rear seat belt buckles mounted on the floor. Refer to SB-3
.
11. Remove the LH center pillar trim, the LH rear trim panel, and the LH rear side door kick plate and weather
stripping. Refer to EI-34
.
12. Remove the second row rear center console and base. Refer to EI-36
.
13. Reposition the floor carpet out of the way to access the inspection hole cover, located under the center LH
rear seat.
14. Remove the inspection hole cover by turning the retainers 90°
degrees clockwise.
• Remove the O-ring.

FUEL TANK
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
1. Turn the ignition switch ON but do not start engine, then check the fuel pipe and hose connections for
leaks while applying fuel pressure.
2. Start the engine and rev it above idle, then check that there are no fuel leaks at any of the fuel pipe and
hose connections.

Front Suspension PartsINFOID:0000000003532636
Check front suspension parts for excessive play, cracks, wear and
other damage.
• Shake each front wheel to check for excessive play.
If looseness is noted, inspect wheel bearing end play, then check
ball joint end play. Refer to FA X - 5 , "
On-Vehicle Inspection and Ser-
vice" and FSU-15, "Inspection".
• Make sure that the cotter pin is inserted (4WD only).
• Retighten all nuts and bolts to the specified torque.
• Check shock absorber for oil leakage and other damage.
• Check suspension ball joint for grease leakage and ball joint dust
cover for cracks and other damage.
Front Wheel AlignmentINFOID:0000000003532637
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
WARNING:
Always adjust the alignment with the vehicle on a flat surface.
NOTE:
If alignment is out of specification, inspect and replace any damaged or worn suspension parts before making
any adjustments.
1. Check and adjust the wheel alignment with the vehicle under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions”
means that the fuel, coolant, and lubricant are full; and that the spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in
their designated positions.
2. Check the tires for incorrect air pressure and excessive wear.
3. Check the wheels for run out and damage. Refer to WT-5, "
Inspection".
4. Check the wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to FA X - 5 , "
On-Vehicle Inspection and Service".
5. Check the shock absorbers for leaks or damage.
6. Check each mounting point of the suspension components for any excessive looseness or damage.
7. Check each link, arm, and the rear suspension member for any damage.
8. Check the vehicle height. Refer to FSU-20, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1)".
• Verify the level using Consult-II memory register 1103 and set to 0 ± 10 mm (0 ± 0.39 in) as necessary.
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A Four-Wheel Thrust Alignment should be performed.
• This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN vehicle.
• The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel
is centered.
• The alignment machine itself should be capable of accepting any NISSAN vehicle.
• The alignment machine should be checked to ensure that it is level.
2. Make sure the alignment machine is properly calibrated.
• Your alignment machine should be regularly calibrated in order to give correct information.Suspension component torques : Refer to FSU-5,

Precaution for Multiport Fuel Injection System or Engine Control SystemINFOID:0000000003531474
• 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 injec-
tors, be sure to release fuel pressure.
• Be careful not to jar components such as ECM and mass air flow
sensor.
Precaution for HosesINFOID:0000000003531475
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 of hose insertion
length and clamp orientation. (If tube is equipped with hose stop-
per, insert rubber hose into tube until it butts up against hose stop-
per.)
HOSE CLAMPING
• If old rubber hose is re-used, install hose clamp in its original posi-
tion (at the indentation where the old clamp was). If there is a trace
of tube bulging left on the old rubber hose, align rubber hose at
that position.
• Discard old clamps; replace with new ones.
