Fuel Line Fittings
WARNING:
Fuel lines may be under pressure. Use care during removal to prevent personal injury.
- Clean fuel supply fitting prior to separation. Some fittings may stick between seals and tubing. Twist fitting on tube, then push and pull fitting until it moves freely. Fuel lines may be of 2 different types. One uses a hairpin clip connector and one uses a metal spring lock connector.
- On hairpin clip type, bend tab downward until it clears fitting body. See Fig 1 . Spread 2 clip legs 1/8" each to disengage body and push legs into fitting. Pull clip from fitting and discard clip. Pulling in an axial direction, separate tube from fitting. Reverse procedure for installation. Use new hairpin clip.
- On metal spring lock type, use Spring Lock Coupling Disconnect Tool (T81P-19623-G2) to separate coupling fitting. Align mating marks on connector to ensure positive proper mating at installation.
