• Q: How to replace the fuel filler hose on 2008 Cadillac SRX?

  A: The procedure for Fuel Filler Hose replacement starts with draining fuel from below the fuel filler tube through cap removal. The first step requires you to disconnect the bolts holding the fuel filler tube to the body before removing the right rear wheel along with the rear bumper fascia. First disconnect the filler vent tube from the evap hose then disconnect the Fuel Filler Hose from the Fuel Tank before taking off the fuel filler tube brace bolt. After finishing all necessary preparations proceed to take out the fuel filler tube from the vehicle. Position the fuel filler tube before attaching the filler hose to the Fuel Tank while tightening the fuel filler tube hose clamp to 3.5 n.m (31 lb in). The evap hose needs connection to the filler vent tube before you install and tighten the fuel filler tube brace bolt to 9 n.m (80 lb in). Install the fuel filler tube body bolts while tightening them to 3.5 n.m (31 lb in) and reattach the rear bumper fascia and right rear wheel. Before closing up the Fuel Tank operations check for leaks and reinsert the fuel filler cap afterwards.
