4. Disconnect the hose and connector connections, and then

use special tool MB991480 to remove the fuel pump
module.

CAUTION

Install the packing to the fuel tank, and then install the fuel
pump module to the fuel tank. Installing the packing to the
fuel pump module will damage the packing lip when
installing the fuel pump module to the fuel tank, and fuel
leakage will occur.
5. Check that the fuel tank is not damaged or deformed, and

then securely install the packing to the fuel tank.
NOTE: If the packing is damaged or deformed, replace with
new packing.

CAUTION

• Do not tilt the fuel pump module when installing.
• The packing should not be folded over as shown by "A"

in the illustration.

6. Apply soap water to the inside of the packing, and then

install the fuel pump module.

CAUTION

When Tightening, be careful not to let the fuel pump mod-
ule turn together with the cap. If the mating marks are mis-
aligned, the float may measure a remaining amount of fuel
in correctly, causing the low fuel warning light to malfunc-
tion.
7. Use special tool MB991480 to align the mating marks on the

fuel tank and fuel pump module, and tighten the cap.

8. Check for leaks from the installation section of the fuel pump

module by the following procedure.

(1) Apply soapy water to the inside diameter of the cap.
(2) Choke the vapor hose and main hose, apply an internal

pressure of 10 kPa (1.45 psi) or less from the return hose
and check that no bubbles form in the soapy water.

9. Connect the connector, and then install the protector.
10.Install the rear seat cushion. (Refer to GROUP 52A
