Refitting the fuel tank
Place the tank in position. Install the rubber spacers (1,
fig. 31) and tighten them. Fit the quick couplings for the
delivery and return lines (2, fig. 32). Be sure to match the
colours properly (connect white to white and black to
black) and smear some lubricant on the O-rings.
Warning
Perform this operation when the engine is cold.
Some fuel may come out while disconnecting the quick
couplings.
Warning
If pressed accidentally, the pins (F, fig. 34) will
cause the laminations of the quick couplings to close.
Make sure the laminations are open. If not so, press the
tabs (A, fig. 33) to open them.
Connect the fuel sensor (3, fig. 33).
Check that the key switch is turned to “OFF”.
Check that the switch (4, fig. 35) is in the (A) position.
Turn the key to “ON”.
Press the switch (5) to pressurise the fuel system and
wait for the fuel pump to stop running. Repeat cycle by
moving switch (4) to (A); then press switch (5) again.
During this procedure, check that fuel is not escaping
past the quick couplings of the delivery and return lines.
Set the key switch back to “OFF” again.
To lock the tank, start the screws in their holes and
torque them up to specified torque. Be sure to install the
rubber spacers together with the tail fastening plate.
