2001 Chevrolet Malibu Fuel Filler Hose Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the fuel filler hose on 2001 Chevrolet Malibu?

  A: To replace the Fuel Filler Hose, release first the pressure of the fuel system and then drain the Fuel Tank. Remove the Fuel Filler Hose after removing the clamp from the Fuel Tank and clamp from the fuel filler pipe and after raising the vehicle. Then disconnect the screw of the fuel filler pipe attaching from the underbody, followed by fuel filler pipe access screws, and remove the fuel filler pipe. For installation, start with the installation of the fuel filler pipe, mate it to underbody and secure it by the attaching screw tightened to 10 n.m (89 lb in). Then, attach the screws to the fuel filler pipe access panel and tighten them to 10 n.m (89 lb in). Join the vapor recirculation line on the fuel filler pipe, attach the Fuel Filler Hose to the Fuel Tank and filler tube ensuring it is seated all the way onto the Fuel Tank port and the fuel filler pipe. Correctly place the clamp on the tank port near to the bead and the tank while tightening the Fuel Tank filler pipe hose clamps at 3 n.m (27 lb in). Put the vehicle on the ground, replenish the Fuel Tank, screw the fuel filler cap, and reconnect the negative Battery Cable. Lastly, check for leaks in the fuel by turning on the ignition for two seconds, off for ten seconds, and on again, confirming leaks if any.
