  Q: What are the safety precautions and steps to follow when servicing the fuel filler hose on Lincoln Town Car?

  A: It is necessary to follow safety measures when servicing the fuel filler hose because the highly flammable mixtures present in fuel components require avoidance of smoking and open flame exposure. Before working with fuel system components it is necessary to drain the pressurized fuel to avoid dangerous fuel spraying incidents. Before vehicle lifting or towing users should switch the air suspension switch in the luggage compartment off to prevent accidental air spring inflation or deflation while the electrical power remains inactive. Start procedures by removing the battery ground cable followed by Fuel Tank draining. You should remove screws in a way that protects the retainer ring from damage which may cause the filler cap to fail its sealing function. Lift your vehicle before taking away the left-rear wheel assembly together with its tire. Disconnect the vapor recirculation tube connector then remove the screw while using the dogpoint screw with a blunt end instead. The fuel tank filler pipe requires insertion into the tank to clear its way before turning it counterclockwise by half a turn. The tank strap should be loosened slightly if more tank removal space becomes required. Oil the fuel tank filler pipe tip with petroleum then turn it clockwise by half a turn before attaching its screw with a dogpoint design. After reconnecting the vapor recirculation hose you should lower the vehicle and install screws while maintaining the strap for the cap at the four o'clock position.
