Fuel Pump: Removal

  1. Disconnect battery ground terminal. Working under vehicle, disconnect harness connector from fuel pump. Thoroughly clean around outside of fuel line unions.
  2. Temporarily pinch shut supply line from pump to fuel tank. With a large container under pump and reservoir, disconnect output fuel line to drain reservoir and relieve pressure. On models with CIS-E or CIS-E Motronic, remove cap nut, fuel line and 2 sealing washers. On Digifant models, remove hose clamp and fuel line. Using clean shop towels, clean up any residue escaping container.
    WARNING: Fuel will be discharged. DO NOT  smoke or work near heaters or other fire hazards. Keep a fire extinguisher handy.
  3. Remove 3 mounting screws from fuel pump retaining ring and pull fuel pump assembly from fuel reservoir.
