Fuel Pump Cap Installation Note

Note
•  The fuel pump unit will rotate and cannot be secured in the specified position if there is any gasoline on the gasket. Thoroughly wipe away all gasoline from the gasket.
•  Make the markings to be easily visible when the fuel pump cap is installed.
•  Marks are provided on the fuel pump unit and fuel tank for correct installation of the fuel pump unit.

1.  Mark the fuel pump cap and the fuel tank at the point where the threading of each part begins as shown in the figure.
