TOOLS
• 7 mm socket (optional)
• 10mm socket
• 17 mm socket or wrench
• Socket extension (optional)
• Ratchet
• Philips-head screwdriver
• Small flat-head screwdriver
• Regular sized flat-head screwdriver
• Pliars
• Rags
PROCEDURE
• Remove the rear seat (10mm bolt near the center of the seat between the bottom and rear seats).
• Remove the gas cap to relieve any pressure in the fuel tank.
• Remove the access panel cover (4 philips-head screws) to reveal the fuel tank cover.
• Pull the rubber boot up on the connector and disconnect it.
• Remove the banjo bolt (17mm - remember to keep track of how the crush washers go back on). Be aware that fuel will likely spew out so have a rag ready. Also remove the other hose from the cover (fuel return line).
• Remove the 6 nuts from the cover (10mm)
• Pull the entire cover up and the pump will follow. Remove everything attached from the tank.
• Pull the bottom of the pump away from the assembly.
• Push the edges of the green tab down and slide it up toward the cover (push where red arrows are)
• Push the tab on the black connector to disconnect it from the pump
• Slide the original clamps on the hose away from their original positions and remove the pump from the assembly. Also remove the hose.
• Pull the rubber boot up from the bottom of the pump to reveal a little round keeper on the filter
• Remove the keeper with a small flat-head screwdriver and keep track of it - you may need to reuse this piece
• Place the rubber boot onto the new filter and attach the filter to the new pump. Add the keeper to keep it in place. I used a 7mm socket and extension to apply pressure evenly on the keeper to make it easier to install.
• Place the new hose and clamps on the new pump. Be careful so that the clamps don't touch the assembly when the pump is in place. Metal to metal in a fuel tank is not a good idea.
• Place the pump back onto the assembly and tighten the clamps
• Attach the wire plug onto the new pump. Remember to put the green keeper back onto the wire plug.
• Drop the whole assembly - pump and all - back into the tank
• Tighten the 6 10mm nuts in a criss-cross pattern (like you would your wheel)
• Reinstall the line with the banjo bolt and crush washers
• Reinstall the return line and slide the clamp back into place
• Place the wire plug back on and pull the boot back into place
• Reinstall the panel cover
• Reinstall the rear seat
Done!
