Lines - Low-Pressure Fuel: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Ford Econoline, 2003 Ford E550 Super Duty, and 2003 Ford E450 Super Duty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Replace the fuel line O-ring seals.

NOTE: Lubricate the fuel line O-ring seals with 5W-30 engine oil meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C153-G or equivalent prior to installation, to help seal and ease the installation.

NOTE: When tightening the fuel lines, a torque wrench adapter must be used with the torque wrench. The use of a torque wrench adapter will alter the effective torque of the torque wrench being used. To correct the effective torque, a torque multiplication conversion must be used. For additional information, refer to FUEL SYSTEM-GENERAL INFORMATION-NATURAL GAS .
