When installing the fuel filler neck assembly to the fuel tank assembly, insert the breather tube up to the upper hole of the fuel filler nipple securely.

>>B<< BOLT INSTALLATION
Wipe away the adhesive from around the bolt thread of the fuel filler neck assembly, and then tighten the bolt to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 8.4 ± 0.8 N·m

>>C<< FUEL RETURN TUBE <4G1>/FUEL VAPOUR CONTROL LINE TUBE/FUEL MAIN TUBE INSTALLATION

caution After connecting the fuel return tube <4G1>, fuel vapour control line tube or fuel main tube, slightly pull it to ensure that it is installed securely. Also confirm that there is a play approximately 3 mm.

note A ring for checking engagement of the connector is fitted at the fuel line pipe side of the new fuel main tube. The ring will protrude at the pipe side when the fuel line pipe is inserted, but this is not a problem.
