FUEL PUMP
Read DANGER and WARNING on page 14-1.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The gasoline vehicle is equipped with an impulse fuel pump. If the fuel pump is not operating properly, per-
form the following tests:
• Make sure all hose clamps are tight.
• Inspect the impulse line and fuel lines for damage or clogging.
• Make sure the air vent on the fuel pump is not clogged with dirt.
• Make sure the fuel filters are not clogged.
To clean the air vent, the fuel pump must be disassembled.
FUEL PUMP REMOVAL
1. Turn fuel shut-off valve on top of the gas tank to the closed (OFF) position (Figure 14-21, Page 14-28).
2. Remove hardware attaching the fuel pump (18) and lift the fuel pump out of the engine compartment
3. Remove the clamp (20) and impulse line (7) from fuel pump (Figure 14-15, Page 14-20).
4. Disconnect the fuel lines (2 and 3) from the pump and plug them to prevent gasoline leakage (Figure
14-15, Page 14-20). See following WARNING.
∆ WARNING
• Carefully drain any fuel remaining in the pump into a container. Add drained fuel back into gas
tank or dispose of properly.
FUEL PUMP DISASSEMBLY
NOTE: A fuel pump rebuild kit is available from Club Car (CCI 1014524). This kit includes all gaskets, dia-
phragms, and valves.
1. Remove four screws (24) and lock washers (25) from front of the fuel pump (Figure 14-16, Page 14-
2. Remove the front cover of the fuel pump while holding the rest of the pump intact.
3. Note the orientations of the impulse gasket (27), the diaphragm (28), and the gasket (29), then remove
them from the pump (Figure 14-16, Page 14-22).
∆ CAUTION
• Fuel pump gaskets and diaphragms must be reinstalled in exactly the same positions and
orientations they were in before disassembly, or the pump could leak. If leaking occurs, all new
gaskets and diaphragms must be installed.
