Removal & Installation (Single Tab)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Dodge Pickup and 1995 Dodge Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Disconnect negative battery cables. Ensure disconnect fitting and fuel lines are clean. Note location of release tab and pull tab on disconnect fitting. See Figure.
    CAUTION: Release tab must be pressed downward before removing pull tab or pull tab will be damaged.
  2. Press release tab downward. Using screwdriver, pry pull tab upward until pull tab separates from disconnect fitting. Remove disconnect fitting from fuel line. Inspect components for damage. If disconnect fitting is damaged, entire assembly must be replaced, as only pull tab can be replaced.
  3. To install, ensure fuel line and disconnect fitting are clean. Lubricate fuel line and disconnect fitting with engine oil. Install disconnect fitting on fuel line until disconnect fitting bottoms on fuel line.
  4. Install NEW pull tab until pull tab locks in disconnect fitting. DO NOT reuse old pull tab. Pull on fuel line and disconnect fitting to ensure components are properly locked together. Reconnect negative battery cables. Start engine and check for leaks.
