INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Check the following items, and replace the part if necessary.
• Move joint up/down, left/right, and in the axial directions. Check for motion that is not smooth and for signifi-

cant looseness.

• Check boot for cracks, damage, and leakage of grease.

General Precautions

INFOID:0000000006356434

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 CO

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-35, "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-551, "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-480, "EVAPORATIVE EMISSION
