• Q: How to replace the fuel filler hose on 2001 Buick Park Avenue?

  A: A proper beginning to replace the fuel filler tube demands one to drain the Fuel Tank until it reaches below the Fuel Filler Hose. The first step requires lifting the car and taking off the wheel house filler pipe opening cover. The procedure begins with removing the Fuel Tank filler pipe ground wire bolt followed by unclipping the fuel filter pipe clamp before proceeding with the fuel filler pipe removal. Installation of the fuel filler pipe must start by following the fastener notice in service precautions then performing pipe installation. Install the fuel filler pipe clamp while tightening it to 3.5 n.m (31 lb in). Secure the Fuel Tank filler pipe ground wire bolt by turning it to 9 n.m (80 lb in). Put back the wheel house filler pipe opening cover and then lower the vehicle before adding fuel to the tank. Put on the Fuel Tank filler pipe cap while linking the negative Battery Cable. Check for fuel leakage by operating the ignition for 2 seconds first followed by a 10-second waiting period then activate it again to detect leakage. Put on the fuel injector sight shield as the last installation step.
