Fuel Tank Draining
Special tool
J 34730-262 Fuel Pressure/Test Gage Adapter
J 42960-2 Fuel Flapper Door Holder
J 45004 Fuel Tank Drain Hose
For any operation requiring removal of the fuel tank,
there should be no more than 11.4 L (3 gal) of fuel
remaining. This minimizes the weight of the fuel tank and
eases handling. The fuel level can be determined by
reading the fuel level gage. A reading below 1/4 full
indicates that no more than 11.4 L (3 gal) are remaining.
Using The Fuel Pump
WARNING
!
Do not allow smoking or the use of open
flames in the area where work on the fuel or
EVAP system is taking place. Anytime work is
being done on the fuel system, disconnect
the negative battery cable, except for those
tests where battery voltage is required.
WARNING
!
Never drain or store fuel in an open container
due to the possibility of fire or explosion.
Using the fuel pump to drain the tank is the easiest
procedure if the pump is operable. The fuel can be
pumped out with the vehicle on the ground or on the
hoist.
On The Ground
WARNING
!
Fuel supply lines will remain pressurized for
long periods of time after the engine is
shutdown. This pressure must be relieved
before servicing the fuel system.
1. Relieve the fuel system pressure. Refer to "Fuel
Pressure Relief (With J 34730-1A)" "Fuel Pressure
Relief (Without J 34730-1A)".
WARNING
!
Whenever fuel line fittings are loosened or
removed, wrap a shop cloth around the fitting
and have an approved container available to
collect any fuel.
