The fuel tube/quick-connect fittings connect the fuel rail (A) to fuel feed hose (B), the fuel feed hose (B) to the fuel pipe (C), and the fuel tube (D) to the fuel tank unit (E), and fuel tube (F) to the fuel filter (G). When removing or installing the fuel feed hose, fuel tank unit or fuel tank, it is necessary to disconnect or connect the quick-connect fittings.
Pay attention to the following:
- The fuel feed hose (B), fuel tube (D) and quick-connect fittings (H) are not heat-resistant; be careful not to damage them during welding or other heat-generating procedures.
- The fuel feed hose (B), fuel tube (D) and quick-connect fittings (H) are not acid-proof; do not touch them with a shop towel which was used for wiping battery electrolyte. Replace them if they came into contact with electrolyte or something similar.
- When connecting or disconnecting the fuel feed hose (B), fuel tube (D) and quick-connect fittings (H), be careful not to bend or twist them excessively. Replace them it damaged.
