Clean the fuel connections with the surrounding areas before removing the fuel fill cap and start the pipe replacement process. You should detach the fuel tank filler housing from the body through the process of unscrewing the torx(R) screws and retainer . Begin by removing both the spare tire stowage lock cylinder in addition to the spare tire if needed. Lift the vehicle before you remove the vent hose clip from the fill pipe while also detaching the air suspension hose at the fill pipe if needed. To begin remove the chassis wiring harness ground bolt along with the left rear lamp ground wire and fill pipe ground strap which are fastened to the frame. The technician should detach the fuel fill hose clamp before removing both the fuel fill hose and the fuel tank. A mechanic should loosen the fuel fill pipe vent hose clamp at the Fuel Tank Vent Valve before disconnecting the fuel fill pipe vent line quick connect fitting from the evaporative emission (EVAP) canister vent solenoid valve. The first step combines three tasks: bolt removal of the fuel fill pipe bracket (2, 4), covering both the fuel tank opening and evap vent line to prevent contamination, and removing the fuel fill pipe assembly. Removing any serviceable element of the fill pipe assembly requires disassembling its following components: the fuel tank filler vent hose and fuel tank fill pipe housing bolts alongside fuel tank fill pipe housing and fuel tank fill hose using a fuel tank fill pipe clip and fuel tank fill hose clamp and fuel tank fill hose while also including the evaporative emission hose and evaporative emission hose clamp. The installation requires tightening the following parts to the mentioned torque values: evaporative emission hose clamp to 2.5 nm (22 lb in) along with its hose and fuel tank fill hose clamp to 2.5 nm (22 lb in), while the hose needs tightening to 2.5 nm (22 lb in) then follow by fuel tank fill pipe clip , fuel tank fill hose , fuel tank fill pipe housing , and fuel tank fill pipe housing bolts to 2.3 nm (20 lb in). After uninstalling the caps from the evap vent line and fuel tank opening you can install the fuel fill hose to the fuel tank at a position that matches the hose notch to the fuel tank notch. Secure the fuel fill pipe bracket bolts (2, 4) to 12 nm (106 lb in) after installation of the tab on the fuel fill pipe to the frame notch. Secure the plastic connector of the fuel fill pipe vent line to the evap canister vent solenoid valve through a clamp that has been tightened to 2.5 nm (22 lb in). Position the fuel fill hose clamp at the Fuel Tank Vent Valve and hold it there with another clamp set to 2.5 nm (22 lb in). The fill pipe ground strap needs installation next to the left rear lamp ground wire before attaching them both to the frame and placing the lamp ground wire anti-rotation tab into the frame hole. Reinstall the air suspension hose only if needed then connect the rear axle vent hose clip to the fill pipe before tightening the chassis wiring harness ground bolt to 9 nm (80 lb in). Position the fuel tank filler housing onto the body frame while tightening the torx(R) screws together with the retainer to 2.3 nm (20 lb in). Reinstallation of the spare tire must be completed with the fuel fill cap and spare tire stowage lock cylinder if you need to use them.
