Installation

CAUTION: WHENEVER FUEL LINE CONNECTORS ARE DISCONNECTED, LUBRICATE STEEL LINE MALE ENDS WITH CLEAN ENGINE OIL. HOLDING STEEL LINE, FIRMLY PRESS ON FEMALE COUPLER UNTLL A CLICK IS HEARD, THEN PULL BACK TO CONFIRM ENGAGEMENT. MAKE SURE THE FUEL LINE CONNECTS ARE FULLY SEATED. PINCHED, KINKED OR DAMAGED FUEL LINES MUST BE REPLACED.

IMPORTANT:
^ Make sure cylinder head and air intake manifold gasket sealing surfaces are clean. Use Saturn P/N 21485276 (Loctite 290 or equivalent) to seal a PCV valve inlet tube into the manifold if replaced.
^ Replace plastic fuel retainer whenever the fuel supply is disconnect at the fuel rail. Install the new retainer into the female cavity of the connection. Care must be taken to assure that the locking tab is centered in the window of the female cavity. Firmly press the female connection onto the male end until a click is heard, then pull back to confirm engagement. Pinched, kinked, or damaged fuel lines must be replaced.
