Installation
1.
Install new O-ring into groove of vent tube fitting.
2.
Spread HYLOMAR on both sides of fuel cap boot confin-
ing application to where boot makes contact with top of
fuel tank and bottom of fuel cap flange.
3.
Holding rollover valve in a vertical position with the
threaded end at the top, insert into filler neck pushing
threaded end up through hole in fuel tank. See B of Fig-
ure 4-8. Exercise caution to avoid dropping valve into
fuel tank.
4.
With hole in boot aligned with hole in fuel cap flange,
place over threaded end of rollover valve. Start vent tube
fitting onto threads of rollover valve, but do not tighten.
5.
Using a crosswise pattern, alternately tighten eight fuel
cap flange screws until snug. See Figure 4-7. Following
the same pattern, final tighten screws to 20-22 in-lbs (2-
3 Nm).
6.
Hand tighten vent tube fitting, so that nozzle is at the 11
o'clock position (with hex point to the right of the nozzle
at 12 o'clock). See Figure
NOTE
If nozzle is not at the 11 o'clock position when hand tight-
ened, loosen the fitting slightly, and reaching into filler neck
with two fingers, slightly rotate body of rollover valve in a
counter-clockwise direction. Hand tighten fitting again and
observe orientation of nozzle. If nozzle is closer, repeat pro-
cedure. If further away, rotate body of valve in the opposite
direction. A few attempts may be needed to achieve the
desired result.
CAUTION
Do not overtighten vent tube fitting or attempt to tighten
with standard "click-type" torque wrench. Overtightening
fitting can snap off threaded end of rollover valve, possi-
bly causing damaged parts to fall into fuel tank.
7.
Using a dial-type torque wrench on hex, final tighten vent
tube fitting to 40-60 in-lbs (5-7 Nm). Verify that nozzle
has not rotated out of 11 o'clock position.
8.
Push hose onto outlet fitting at side of fuel supply valve.
Turn slotted screw to tighten band clamp.
9.
Push vent tube onto nozzle of vent tube fitting. Install
small cable strap to fix location. Cut any excess cable
strap material.

threaded hole of battery negative (-) terminal. Tighten
bolt to 60-96 in-lbs (7-11 Nm).
