Warning! Remember that gasoline is a highly flammable liquid! Observe all applicable fire safety precautions when working on power system components. Do not smoke! Do not approach the place of work with an open flame or carrying an unprotected lampshade! Do not service the system in rooms equipped with natural gas-fired heaters equipped with a pilot flame (such as water heaters and clothes dryers). Do not forget that gasoline is classified as a carcinogen, i.e., substances that contribute to the development of cancer! Try to avoid getting fuel on open areas of the body, use rubber protective gloves, in case of accidental unexpected contact with fuel, thoroughly wash your hands with warm water and soap. Clean up spilled fuel immediately and do not store fuel-soaked rags near open flames. Remember that the fuel injection system of models equipped with fuel injection is constantly under pressure. Relieve any residual pressure in the system before attempting to disconnect fuel lines. Wear safety goggles when servicing power system components. Keep a class B fire extinguisher handy at all times!
Removing
1. Details of the installation of the fuel tank are shown in the illustrations.
2. Relieve pressure in the supply system (see Section Depressurizing the supply system).
3. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
Attention! If the stereo system installed in the car is equipped with a security code, before disconnecting the battery, make sure that you have the correct combination to activate the audio system!
4. Jack up the car and put it on stands.
5. Drain the remaining fuel from the gas tank into a suitable receiving container.
6. On Diamante models:
- a) Remove the left rear wheel arch protection locker;
- b) Disconnect the center section of the exhaust system from the main muffler. Remove the rear section of the exhaust system from the suspensions and lower it, take it to the side and tie it up;
- c) On models equipped with rear wheel steering, remove the mounting bolts and remove the rear steering assembly.
7. Disconnect the pressure and return hoses from the fuel pump assembly. Also disconnect the fuel evaporator hoses.
8. Disconnect the wiring harness from the fuel pump/fuel flow measurement unit assembly.
9. Disconnect the filler neck and ventilation hoses from the tank.
10. Get a suitable jack under the center of the tank, support the assembly with it and give the mounting bracket nuts (tapes).
11. Slightly lower the tank and disconnect the remaining communication lines from it (electrical wiring, hoses, pipes, etc.).
12. Remove the tank from under the car.
Installation
1. If the tank is to be replaced, transfer various attachments from the tank to the replacement assembly, including heat shields, connecting hoses, valves, and the fuel pump/fuel flow sensor assembly.
2. Attach the new tank to the head of the jack and slide it into place under the bottom of the car - leave enough clearance to connect the communication lines to the top of the pump assembly.
3. Connect the appropriate communication lines to the top of the tank.
4. Cock up the jack, finally bringing the tank to its regular position. Install mounting straps and secure with new self-locking nuts.
5. Restore the original connection of the pressure and return lines.
6. Connect the filler hose and vent line. Secure the filler neck assembly to the fender of the car with special screws.
7. On Diamante models:
- a) With the appropriate configuration, install the power steering of the rear wheels, screw in the fixing bolts and tighten them with the required force (43 Nm);
- b) Install and secure the rear section of the exhaust system on the hangers;
- c) If removed, install the left rear wheel arch locker.
8. Lower the vehicle to the ground and pour the drained fuel back into the tank. Check the operation of the fuel pump (see below), inspect the power system path for signs of leak development.
