- Install the rubber gasket on the fuel tank connector
- Lubricate the inside of the seal and the lower end of the filler pipe if necessary
- Check that the check valve is seated correctly with its flap in position on the pipe (shake the tank and listen to ensure that it does not rattle)
- Press the pipe firmly into the seal so that it slides into position.
Install:
- The filler pipe flange
- The screws. Tighten to 10 Nm
- The hose for the shut off pipe.
A new fuel tank has been introduced. See "Service Bulletin 23-0048".
