4.5 Modular Fuel Pump and Sender
Assembly
NOTE
If the modular fuel pump and sender assembly
develops a fault it must be replaced as a
complete unit. The only serviced parts are the
retainer locking ring and the O-ring seal.
Remove
• A depressurised fuel system contains fuel
in the fuel filter and fuel lines that can be
spilled during service operations.
• Fuel vapour remains in the fuel tank even
when completely empty. Seal all openings
in the fuel tank using suitable material or a
plastic plug. Ensure no naked flames or
other ignition sources are nearby. Ensure
all cellular phones (and transmission
devices that may cause any metal objects
to become unintentional receiving
antennas) are switched off.
• Place a dry chemical (Class B) fire
extinguisher nearby before performing any
on-vehicle service procedures. Failure to
follow these precautions may result in
personal injury.
• Wear safety glasses when using
compressed air. Do not blow compressed
air directly onto any body part.
1 Remove the fuel pump relay, refer to 8A Engine Body and Chassis.
2 Remove the fuel tank assembly from the vehicle, refer to 4.4 Fuel Tank.
Before proceeding, clean all traces of dirt and
other foreign material from the top of the fuel
tank, near the modular fuel pump and sender
assembly.
3 Use compressed air to ensure all dirt and foreign materials are removed from all fuel connections before disconnecting the parts.
Fuel can spill from the disconnected modular
fuel pump and sender assembly.

• Ensure tool No. AU469 is seated firmly and
positively in the modular fuel pump and
sender assembly cover retainer lock ring
while removing the modular fuel pump and
sender assembly.
• Assistance will be required to hold the

not held adequately, you may slip and
damage the modular fuel pump and sender
assembly.

The reservoir will be full of fuel. When the
modular fuel pump and sender assembly is
removed from the fuel tank, pour any
remaining fuel in the reservoir into a suitable
container. Do not drain or store fuel into an
open container, due to the possibility of fire
or explosion.
12 Place the modular fuel pump and sender assembly cover retainer lock ring (1) in a safe location away
from the immediate worksite.
13 Carefully lift the modular fuel pump and sender assembly from the fuel tank, taking care not to:
• damage the fuel level sender float and arm (2),
or
• spill any fuel remaining in the reservoir
NOTE
The fuel sender float arm is not serviced
separately. If damaged, the modular fuel pump
and sender assembly is replaced as a complete
assembly.
14 Remove and discard the O-ring (3).

ignition sources are nearby. Ensure all
cellular phones (and transmission devices
that may cause any metal objects to become

15 Place a suitable material over the opening in the fuel tank to prevent any foreign matter from entering the fuel system.
Fuel Level Sender Assembly
Test
1 Measure the resistance across terminals 2 and 3 of the fuel pump connector. Take the following
measurements:
a W ith the float arm assembly in the empty position, the resistance should be approximately
250 Ω.
b W ith the float arm assembly rotated to the full position, the resistance should be approximately
40 Ω.
2 If the resistance at either of these positions is not within tolerance, replace the modular fuel pump and
sender assembly.
Figure 6C – 27
Reinstall
Reinstallation of the modular fuel pump and sender assembly is the reverse of the removal procedure, noting the
following:
1 Fit a new O-ring (3) to the modular fuel pump and sender assembly.
2 Install the modular fuel pump and sender assembly into the fuel tank, taking care not to damage the fuel sender float or arm.
3 Ensure the locator in the pump cover engages in the slot in the fuel tank opening.
4 Using tool No. AU469 and a half-inch breaker bar, install the modular fuel pump and sender assembly cover retainer lock ring by turning it clockwise.
5 Refit the three quick connect fittings.

4 Remove the canister vent line (2) from the canister (1)
by twisting and pulling it off.
Refer to 4.1 Fuel Lines And Quick Connect Fittings for further information.
Figure 6C – 30
5 Remove the canister retaining nut (2).
6 Remove the canister from the retaining stud and then slide the canister (3) out of the retaining bracket (1).
Figure 6C – 31
Service Check
1 Remove the canister.
2 Shake the canister. There should be no audible sound of carbon movement.
3 Using low pressure compressed air (20–35 kPa), blow into the tank vent port (3). Check that air flows freely
from the canister vent port (1). Block the canister vent
port (1); air should flow from the canister purge
port (2).
4 If airflow through the canister vent port (1) is limited, clean the atmospheric filter by blocking off the fuel
tank vent port (3) and blow compressed air at
approximately 300 kPa through the canister purge
port (2).
5 Check airflow through the filter as in step 3. If airflow through the canister vent port (1) is still limited, replace
the canister.

6 Block the canister vent port (1) and the canister purge port (2). Apply low-pressure compressed air
(20–35 kPa) to the tank vent port (3). If any air leaks from the canister (that is, around the ports or seams), replace
the canister.
NOTE
In dusty areas, an alternative is to block the
canister purge port (2). Blow air through the
canister vent (1) port and check that air is
expelled through the tank vent port (3).
Reinstall
Reinstallation of the evaporative emission control canister is the reverse of the removal procedure.
1 Reinstall the canister into the retainer (1) and over the retaining stud.
2 Reinstall the canister retaining nut (2), then hand- tighten.
3 Ensure the canister is located correctly and tighten the canister retaining nut (2) to the specified torque.
Evaporative emission control canister

4 Reinstall the canister vent line (2).
5 Align the canister purge line quick-connect (3) with the canister purge line port. Push the quick-connect firmly
onto the port.
6 Align the fuel tank vent line quick-connect (4) with the fuel tank vent port. Push the quick-connect firmly onto
the port.
7 After installation, pull on each quick-connect to ensure the connections are secure and locked in position.

4.8 Fuel Filler Cap
The fuel filler cap is a 'screw on' type, with an integrated tightening torque limiting mechanism. W hen installing the fuel
filler cap, tighten it until a ratcheting (clicking) sound is audible, indicating the fuel filler cap is properly tightened. Th e fuel
filler cap is tethered to the fuel filler pocket.
Remove
The fuel filler cap requires a quarter of a turn anticlockwise to be removed.
Vacuum and pressure valves are built into the fuel filler cap
which regulate the pressure in the fuel tank and prevent fuel
tank and system damage.
Inspection
Inspect the fuel filler cap and seal for any signs of damage.
Replace the fuel filler cap if found to be defective.
1 Pressure Valve
2 Vacuum Valve
3 Seal Ring
A replacement fuel filler cap must be the
same type as the original. The fuel filler cap
pressure and vacuum valves are specific to a
particular application and must be replaced
with the same type or fuel system damage
may occur.
Figure 6C – 36
If the fuel filler cap needs replacing, use only
a 'screw on' fuel tank filler cap with an
integrated tightening torque limiting
mechanism. Failure to use the correct fuel
tank filler cap can result in a serious
malfunction of the emission control or fuel
system.
1 Untwist and remove the fuel filler cap (2) from the fuel filler neck opening.
2 Cover the fuel filler opening with a suitable material to prevent foreign objects from entering the fuel tank.
3 To remove the fuel filler cap tether line use a flat- bladed screwdriver to prise the tether line fastener (2)
from it’s mounting hole.
NOTE
Check the fuel filler cap for serviceability and
replace if required.
