Installation situation 2:
3:20 – 4:00
If only the fuel delivery module is to be replaced.
Connect the quick connector to the straight piece of tubing on the fuel pump. Clip both return lines into the pump module. Insert the plug of the electrical line that leads to the fuel tank sender unit into the pump module.
