  1. INSTALL FUEL SUCTION TUBE WITH PUMP AND GAUGE ASSEMBLY 
    1. Install a new fuel suction tube set gasket to the fuel tank assembly.
    2. Connect the fuel return vent tube sub-assembly and set the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly into the fuel tank assembly.
      NOTE:
      • Make sure that the fuel sender gauge assembly arm does not bend.
      • Do not damage the fuel return vent tube sub-assembly.
      • When disconnecting the fuel tube connector, do not excessively pull on the fuel return vent tube sub-assembly.
    3. Align the protrusions of the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly with the notches in the fuel tank assembly.

        3. 09808-01050
      • SST: 09808-01071 
    5. Using SST, rotate the fuel pump gauge retainer so that the protrusions of the retainer are aligned with the grooves in the fuel tank assembly to install the fuel suction tube with pump and gauge assembly to the fuel tank assembly.
      NOTE:
      • Do not use any tools other than specified in this operation 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 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.
    6. Install the No. 1 fuel tube clamp.
  3. CONNECT FUEL TANK RETURN TUBE 
    1. Push the fuel tube joint onto the plug of the fuel suction plate sub-assembly, then install the tube joint clip.
