• Do not bend or twist the resin tube during connection.
• Do not remove the remaining retainer on the hard tube (or
the equivalent) except when the resin tube or the retainer
is replaced.
• When the resin tube or hard tube, or the equivalent, is
replaced, also replace the retainer with a new one (white

• To keep the quick connector clean and to avoid damage
and contamination from foreign materials, cover the quick
connector with plastic bags or suitable material as shown.
11. Remove the lock ring using Tool.
12. Remove the fuel level sensor, fuel filter, and fuel pump assem- bly. Remove and discard the fuel level sensor, fuel filter, and fuel
pump assembly O-ring.
CAUTION:
• Do not bend the float arm during removal.
• Avoid impacts such as droppi ng when handling the com-
ponents.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• For installation, use a new fuel level sensor, fuel filter, and fuel pump assembly O-ring.
