Installation [08/2020 - ]: Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2024 Lexus ES 250, 2023 Lexus ES 250, 2022 Lexus ES 250, and 2021 Lexus ES 250. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- INSTALL NO. 2 FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY
- Engage the claw to install the No. 2 fuel sender gauge assembly to the fuel tank vent tube assembly.NOTE:
Be careful not to bend the arm of the No. 2 fuel sender gauge assembly.
- Engage the 2 clamps to connect the wire harness to the fuel tank vent tube assembly.NOTE:
- Do not damage the wire harness.
- When engaging each wire harness to the clamp, engage one wire at a time.
- Connect the No. 2 fuel sender gauge assembly connector.
- Engage the claw to install the No. 2 fuel sender gauge assembly to the fuel tank vent tube assembly.
- INSTALL FUEL TANK VENT TUBE ASSEMBLY
- Install a new fuel suction tube set gasket to the fuel tank assembly.
- Connect the fuel return vent tube sub-assembly and set the fuel tank vent tube assembly to the fuel tank assembly.
Refer to PRECAUTION [08/2020 - ]
NOTE:- When connecting the fuel tube connector, do not excessively pull on the fuel return vent tube sub-assembly.
- Be careful not to bend the arm of the No. 2 fuel sender gauge assembly.
- Align the protrusions of the fuel tank vent tube assembly with the notches in the fuel tank assembly.
*a Protrusion Notch
- INSTALL FUEL PUMP GAUGE RETAINER
- Install the fuel pump gauge retainer.
- While pressing down on the fuel tank vent tube assembly, temporarily install the fuel pump gauge retainer.
- Temporarily install SST (plate) and SST (claw) to the fuel pump gauge retainer.
- SST: 09808-01071
- SST: 09808-14031
- 09808-01030
- 09808-01090
*a Insertion Point *b SST (Plate) *c SST (Claw) *d SST (Bolt) HINT:
Securely insert the ends of SST (claw) into the insertion points in the fuel pump gauge retainer.
- While firmly pressing SST (claw) into the insertion points in the fuel pump gauge retainer, tighten SST (bolt).
- Install SST (handle) to SST (plate).
*a Triangle Mark (Fuel Pump Gauge Retainer) *b Triangle Mark (Fuel Tank Assembly) *c SST (Handle) *d SST (Plate) *e SST (Bolt) Front Side - SST: 09808-14031
- 09808-01010
- SST: 09808-14031
- Using SST, rotate the fuel pump gauge retainer so that the triangle mark on the fuel pump gauge retainer is aligned with the triangle mark on the fuel tank assembly to install the fuel tank vent tube assembly to the fuel tank assembly.NOTE:
- Do not use any tools other than specified as this may result in damage to the fuel pump gauge retainer or fuel tank assembly.
- Do not press down on SST excessively as this may make the fuel pump gauge retainer hard to rotate, and may damage components.
- Make sure to rotate SST (handle) horizontally. If it is rotated at an angle, SST may come off.
- Do not spin SST too fast or use an impact wrench as this may result in damage to components.
- If SST comes off of the fuel pump gauge retainer, loosen SST (bolt) and reinstall SST.
- Make sure that the fuel suction tube set gasket does not come off.
- Engage the claw to install the No. 1 fuel tube clamp.
- Install the fuel pump gauge retainer.
- INSTALL REAR FLOOR SERVICE HOLE COVER
- Remove any remaining butyl tape from the rear floor service hole cover and vehicle body.
- Clean the installation surfaces of the rear floor service hole cover and vehicle body.
- Connect the fuel tank vent tube assembly connector.
- Install the rear floor service hole cover with new butyl tape.
*a Butyl Tape Adhesion Area NOTE:Securely install the rear floor service hole cover.
- INSTALL FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY
- Engage the 2 claws to install the fuel sender gauge assembly to the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly.NOTE:
Be careful not to bend the arm of the fuel sender gauge assembly.
- Engage the 3 clamps to connect the wire harness to the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly.NOTE:
- Do not damage the wire harness.
- When engaging each wire harness to the clamp, engage one wire at a time.
- Connect the fuel sender gauge assembly connector.
- Engage the 2 claws to install the fuel sender gauge assembly to the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly.
- INSTALL FUEL SUCTION TUBE WITH PUMP AND GAUGE ASSEMBLY
