Fuel Lines

Fuel Tube/Quick-Connect Fittings (except D1587 /D1626 engines of KM/KH models)

Precautions

Do not smoke while working on the fuel system. Keep the open flame away from the work area. The fuel tube/quick-connect fittings assembly connects the in-tank fuel pump with the fuel feed pipe. For removing or installing the fuel pump and fuel tank, it is necessary to disconnect or connect the quick-connect fittings. Pay attention to the following:

• The fuel tube/quick-connect fittings assembly is not heat-resistant: be careful not to damage it during welding or other heat-generating procedures.
• The fuel tube/quick-connect fittings assembly is not acid-proof: do not touch it with a shop towel that was used for wiping away battery fluid. Replace the fuel tube/quick-connect fittings assembly if it came into contact with battery fluid or similar.
• When connecting or disconnecting the fuel tube/ quick-connect fittings assembly, be careful not to bend or twist it excessively. Replace it in case of damage.
• A disconnected quick-connect fitting can be reconnected, but the retainer on the mating pipe cannot be reused once it has been removed from the pipe. Replace the retainer when
• Replacing the fuel pump.
• Replacing the fuel feed pipe.
• It was removed from the pipe.
• It is damaged.

Disconnection

1. Disconnect the battery negative cable.
2. Relieve fuel pressure.
3. Remove the fuel fill cap and relieve fuel pressure in the tank.
4. Check the fuel quick-connect fittings for dirt, and clean if necessary.
5. Holding the connector with one hand and pressing down the retainer tabs with the other, pull the connector off.

NOTE:

• Be careful not to damage the pipe or other parts. Do not use tools.
• If the connector does not move, keep the retainer tabs pressed down, and alternately pull and push the connector until it comes off easily.
• Do not remove the retainer from the pipe; a removed retainer must be replaced with a new one.
• Check the contact surface of the pipe for dirt and damage.
• If the surface is dirty, clean it.
• If the surface is rusty or damaged, replace the fuel pump or fuel feed pipe.

To prevent damage and the intrusion of foreign matter, cover the disconnected connector and pipe end with plastic bags or similar. NOTE: The retainer cannot be reused once it has been removed from the pipe. Replace the retainer when

• replacing the fuel pump.
• Replacing the fuel feed pipe.
• It was removed from the pipe.
• It is damaged.

Connection

• Check the pipe end for dirt and damage, and clean if necessary
• Insert a new retainer into the connector if the retainer is damaged, or after
• Replacing the fuel pump.
• Replacing the fuel feed pipe.
• Removing the retainer from the pipe.

Before connecting a new fuel tube/quick-connect fitting assembly, remove the retainer from the mating pipe.

1. Align the quick-connect fitting with the pipe, and align the retainer locking pawls with the connector grooves. Then press the quick-connect fitting onto the pipe until both retainer pawls lock with a clicking sound.

Connection with the new retainer.

1. Check visually and by pulling at the connector that the connection is secure and that the pawls are firmly locked into place.
2. Reconnect the battery negative cable, and turn the ignition switch ON; the fuel pump will work for about two seconds, and fuel pressure will rise. Repeat two or three times, and check that there is no leakage in the fuel supply system

Replacement

The fuel filter should be replaced every 2 years or 40,000 km (24,000 miles), whichever comes first, or whenever the fuel pressure drops below the specified value [280-330 kPa, 2.8-3.3 kg/cm2, 40-47 psi with the fuel pressure regulator vacuum hose disconnected and pinched] after making sure that the fuel pump and the fuel pressure regulator are OK.

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery negative terminal.
2. Place a shop towel under and around the fuel filter.
3. Relieve fuel pressure.
4. Support the fuel filter with a wrench, as shown, then remove the banjo bolt and the fuel feed pipe from the fuel filter.
5. Remove the fuel filter clamp and filter.
6. When assembling, use new washers, as shown.

NOTE: Clean the flared joint of high-pressure hoses thoroughly before reconnecting them..
