2000 Chevrolet Malibu Fuel Filler Hose Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service the fuel filler hose on 2000 Chevrolet Malibu?

  A: A proper fuel system pressure relief operation should start before servicing the Fuel Filler Hose. Prior to removing the Fuel Filler Hose begin by raising the vehicle then loosen both clamps located on the Fuel Tank and fuel filler pipe. The vapor recirculation line needs disconnected at the fuel filler pipe then workers must remove both the underbody attaching screw and the fuel filler pipe access panel screws to extract the fuel filler pipe. Place the fuel filler pipe first then fasten it to both the fuel filler pipe access panel and the underbody by tightening the fasteners to 10 n.m (8 lb ft). The procedure requires installing the Fuel Filler Hose while tightening its clamps first at the fuel filler pipe then at the Fuel Tank. The Fuel Tank filler hose must extend to both the Fuel Tank port and the filler pipe entirely while the clamp should rest between the bead and tank before clamping it with 2.5 n.m (22 lb in). The technician performs the leak check after finally reconnecting the Battery Cable and securing the fuel filler cap when the vehicle is at a lower position.
