  Q: How to Service and Repair the Fuel Filler Hose on Lincoln Town Car?

  A:

  Start the Fuel Tank filler pipe service and repair by establishing safety measures that include maintaining distance from fuel components when smoking and having open flames and releasing pressure from the fuel system to stop accidental sprays. Begin procedures by disconnecting battery ground cable and draining the entire fuel content from the tank. The retainer ring faces danger when you remove screws because any damage might stop the filler cap from creating a proper seal. Raising the vehicle enables technicians to remove the tire-wheel assembly from the left-hand rear position. Disconnect the vapor recirculation tube connector and remove it through the blunt-end dogpoint screw. Keep the end of the filler pipe away from the grommet and check valve while taking necessary steps to gain better access by loosening the tank strap. Put the fuel tank filler pipe into the tank but turn it counter-clockwise by 1/2 turn before removing it. Petroleum lubrication should be applied to the fuel tank filler pipe end before installing the pipe with a 1/2 turn clockwise rotation. The dogpoint screw should have its blunt end inserted next to re-attaching the vapor recirculation hose before lowering the car to install screws with 4 o'clock position strap attachment.

  Q: What Safety Precautions Should Be Taken When Servicing the Fuel Filler Hose on Lincoln Town Car?

  A:

  The use of open flames or the presence of lighted tobacco alongside fuel-related components is strictly forbidden when servicing the fuel tank filler pipe because highly flammable mixtures will be present. The risk of ignition requires that personal electronic devices must stay out of range. Prior to component detachment from the fuel tubes drain the system pressure to avoid dangerous fuel mist formation because the system maintains high pressure during engine standstill. Before starting work on evaporative emission system components and fuel system components it is necessary to disconnect the battery ground cable. Hear before lifting a vehicle with Air Suspension because disabling the electrical power stops air spring inflation or deflation while on the lift. The first step involves setting the vehicle at neutral position on a hoist system while also removing the battery ground cable from its storage area. Follow these steps to remove the fuel tank filler cap while turning it to the left about one-fourth rotation before placing it to the side. Introduce the fuel storage tanker drain tube into the fuel tank filler pipe while observing that the built-in spark arrestor will prevent the tube from entering the fuel storage. The three fuel tank filler pipe flange bolts need removal while tightening them to 5 Nm (44 lb-in) before reinstalling. Remove the recirculation tube quick connect coupling from the fuel vapor tube assembly then disconnect its assembly from the fuel tank filler pipe along with the removal of the fuel tank filler pipe bracket bolt. Install this bolt with torque set to 5 Nm (44 lb-in). The fuel tank filler pipe assembly needs to be rotated counterclockwise by a half turn to remove it. Clean engine oil should first be applied to the fuel tank filler pipe and grommet before returning the parts according to installation order.
