Fuel and Evaporative Emission Pipe Warning
Warning: In order to reduce the risk of fire and personal injury
observe the following items:
- Replace all nylon fuel pipes that are nicked, scratched or
damaged during installation, do not attempt to repair the sections
of the nylon fuel pipes
- Do not hammer directly on the fuel harness body clips when
installing new fuel pipes. Damage to the nylon pipes may result in
a fuel leak.
- Always cover nylon vapor pipes with a wet towel before using
a torch near them. Also, never expose the vehicle to temperatures
higher than 115°C (239°F) for more than one hour,
or more than 90°C (194°F) for any extended
period.
- Apply a few drops of clean engine oil to the male pipe ends
before connecting fuel pipe fittings. This will ensure proper
reconnection and prevent a possible fuel leak. (During normal
operation, the O-rings located in the female connector will swell
and may prevent proper reconnection if not lubricated.)
