Fuel filler neck ground contact
Make sure that the threaded connections "1" and "2" of the fuel tank filler neck are free of corrosion, as this may affect the quality of the contact with the body ground. Route the ground cable "3" as shown in Fig. Install the contact tab "7" of the ground connection in the mounting hole of the fuel tank and press the spacer sleeve inside "6". Check the secure fit of the connector "4" of the ground connection in the mounting hole "5" of the filler neck. Danger due to electrostatic charge. After installation, use an ohmmeter to check the electrical contact of the washer on the filler neck with any unpainted spot on the body. Specified value: approx. 0 ohms.
