Withdrawal
Warning!
- Gasoline is explosive, so when working with fuel system components, ensure that the workplace is well ventilated, do not use fire, sparking devices, open flammable lights and do not smoke.
- Before removing the fuel tank, drain the fuel from it. Clean the fuel tank of fuel vapors.
- Remove the cap from the fuel filler neck of the fuel tank to equalize the pressure in the tank with atmospheric pressure.
1. Remove the rear seat backrest and tilt the folded rear seat forward. Use a screwdriver to open the inspection cover of the fuel pump hatch.
2. To relieve pressure in the fuel system, disconnect the fuel pump connector, start the engine and wait until it stops due to the exhaustion of fuel from the fuel lines and fuel line.
Note. Depressurize the fuel system before disconnecting the fuel lines, as otherwise pressurized fuel will leak rapidly from the fuel system.
4. Disconnect the upper pressure hose from the outlet side of the fuel filter and the static discharge wire.
5. Raise the car.
6. Disconnect from a fuel tank a jellied hose and an overflow tube.
7. Support the fuel tank with a jack.
8. Turn away self-locking nuts and remove tapes of fastening of a fuel tank.
9. Remove the fuel tank.
Attention! Close all openings in the fuel tank to prevent fuel vapor from escaping from the tank.
Even in an empty fuel tank, there are fuel vapors that are explosive, so be careful. Keep the workplace well ventilated, do not use fire, sparks, open flammable lights and do not smoke. Clean the fuel tank of fuel vapors as soon as possible.
Examination
1. Check hoses and pipes for cracks, kinks, deformations, aging and blockages.
2. Check the operation of the fuel filler cap.
3. Clean the tank and check it for signs of rust, damage and cracks. A damaged or corroded fuel tank must be replaced.
4. Check the inside of the fuel tank for dirt.
5. Check the internal fuel filter for blockage or damage.
6. Check the operation of the overflow limiter (two-way valve).
7. Check the operation of the two-way valve by blowing it from both sides. If air passes after a slight resistance, the valve is OK.
2. Connect the overflow hose to the fuel tank filler by pushing it in about 40 mm.
3. When connecting the filler hose, it is necessary to connect the end with a shorter straight pipe from the side of the fuel tank.
4. Connect the EVAP hose and return hose. Attach the fuel supply hose as shown in the illustration.
5. To connect the pressure hose to the fuel pump, temporarily tighten the flare nuts by hand, then tighten them to the recommended torque specification. When tightening the nuts, be careful not to bend or twist the tube and damage the fuel pump.
6. Connect the electric fuel pump connector.
