4. Align the quick-connect fittings with the line (A),
and align the retainer locking tabs (B) with the
connector grooves (C). Then press the quick-
connect fittings onto the line until both retainer tabs
lock with a clicking sound.
NOTE: If it is hard to connect, put a small amount of
new engine oil on the line end.
5. When you reconnect the connector with the old
retainer, make sure the connection is secure and
the tabs (A) are firmly locked into place; check
visually and also by pulling the connector (B).
When you replace the fuel line with a new one,
make sure you remove the ring pull (C) upwards
after you confirm the connection is secure.
NOTE: Before you remove the ring pull, make sure
the fuel line connection is secure. If the connection
is not secure, the ring pull could break when you try
to remove it.
6. Reconnect the negative cable to the battery, and
turn the ignition switch ON (II) (but do not operate
the starter motor). The fuel pump will run for about
2 seconds, and fuel pressure will rise. Repeat this
two or three times, and check that there is no
leakage in the fuel supply system.
