PRECAUTION
PRECAUTIONS
General Precautions INFOID:0000000005988482

WARNING:
When replacing fuel line parts, be sure to observe the following.
• Put a “CAUTION: FLAMMABLE” sign in the workshop.
• Be sure to work in a well ventilated area and furnish workshop with a CO2 fire extinguisher.
• Never smoke while servicing fuel system. Keep open flames and sparks away from the work area.
CAUTION:
• Use gasoline required by the regulations for octane number. Refer to GI-27, "Fuel".
• Before removing fuel line parts, perform out the following procedures:
- Put drained fuel in an explosion-proof container and put the lid on securely. Keep the container in
safe area.
- Release fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-113, "Work Procedure".
- Disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal.
• Always replace O-ring and clamps with new ones.
• Never kink or twist tubes when they are being installed.
• Never tighten hose clamps excessively to avoid damaging hoses.
• After installing tubes, check there is no fuel leakage at connections in the following steps.
- Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines with turning ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). Then check
for fuel leakage at connections.
- Start engine and rev it up and check for fuel leakage at connections.
• Use only a genuine NISSAN fuel filler cap as a replacement. If an incorrect fuel filler cap is used, the
“MI” may come on.
• For servicing “EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM” parts, refer to EC-313, "Hydraulic Layout".

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
FUEL SYSTEM
Inspection INFOID:0000000005988485

Inspect fuel lines, fuel filler cap, and fuel tank for improper attach-
ment, leakage, cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing or dete-
rioration.

A : Engine
B : Fuel line
C : Fuel tank
If necessary, repair or replace damaged parts.

REMOVAL
1. Release the fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to following;
• HR12DE (TYPE1): EC-113, "Work Procedure" L
• HR12DE (TYPE2): EC-386, "Work Procedure"
2. Check fuel level on fuel gauge. If fuel gauge indicates more than 7/8 (full or nearly full), drain appropriate
amount of fuel from fuel tank.
M
• In the event of malfunction in fuel pump, insert a hose measuring approximately 20 mm in diameter into
the filler opening to draw fuel from the filler tube. In addition to that, disconnect the fuel tube from the
fuel tube from the from the fuel hose to draw fuel from the fuel hose.
NOTE: N
Guideline: Drawing approximately 10 liters from the full-tank condition brings the fuel level into 7/8 of the
tank.
3. Open fuel filler lid. O
4. Open filler cap and release the pressure inside fuel tank.
5. Remove rear seat. Refer to SE-19, "Exploded View".
6. Remove inspection hole cover. P

• Remove quick connector in the following procedures.

- Hold the sides of connector, press tabs and pull out fuel feed
tube.

A : Pull
B : Push in tabs
- If quick connector sticks to tube of main fuel level sensor unit,
push and pull quick connectors several times until they start to
move. Then disconnect them by pulling.

• Never use any tools to disconnected quick connector.
• Keep resin tube (C) away from heat. Be especially careful
when welding near the resin tube.
• Prevent acid liquid such as battery electrolyte, etc. from
getting on resin tube.
• Never bend or twist resin tube during installation and dis-
connection.
• Never remove the remaining retainer (2) on hard tube (or
the equivalent) (A) except when resin tube or retainer is
replaced.
• When resin tube or hard tube (or the equivalent) is
replaced, also replace retainer with new one.
