INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Whenever the fuel tank module is ser-
viced, the rubber gasket (Fig. 11) must be replaced.

nut threads at top of tank.
(2) Using new gasket, carefully position fuel tank
module into opening in fuel tank.

ment arrow (Fig. 12) towards right side of vehicle (if
necessary) before tightening locknut. This step
