2. Remove the intake manifold cover (2).

3. Remove the oil fill tube assembly (3) and O-ring (4).





4. Remove the evaporative (EVAP) emission canister valve tube (1).

5. Remove the EVAP canister valve (2).

6. Remove the MAP sensor (3).





7. Remove the throttle body (1).





8. Remove the fuel pump cover nut, bolts, and cover (3).

Note:
The low pressure fuel pipe used is model dependent.

9. Remove the bracket bolt and low pressure fuel pipe assembly (1).

10. Remove the fuel pump insulator (2).





Warning

Fuel that flows out at high pressure can cause serious injury to the skin and eyes. ALWAYS depressurize the fuel system before removing components that are under high fuel pressure.

11. Remove and discard the fuel feed intermediate pipe (1).





12. Remove the fuel pump assembly (4).

13. Remove and discard the fuel pump housing O-ring (2) and gasket (3).

14. Remove the fuel pump roller lifter (1).
