- Insert clip into clip mounting groove on fuel injector.
- Insert new clip so that protrusion of fuel injector matches cutout of clip.
CAUTION:- Do not reuse clip. Replace it with a new one.
- Do not allow the clip to interfere with the O-ring. If interference occurs, replace O-ring.
- Insert the fuel injector into the fuel tube with the clip attached.
- Insert it while matching it to the axial center.
- Insert fuel injector so that protrusion of fuel tube matches cutout of clip.
- Make sure that fuel tube flange is securely fixed in flange fixing groove on clip.
- Make sure that installation is complete by checking that the fuel injector does not rotate or come off.
- Make sure that protrusions of the fuel injectors are aligned with cutouts of clips after installation.

CAUTION:- Hold (A) position as shown when inserting fuel tube into quick connector.
- Carefully align center to avoid inclined insertion to prevent damage to O-ring inside quick connector.
- Insert until you hear a "click" sound and actually feel the engagement.
- To avoid mis-identification of engagement with a similar sound, be sure to perform the next step.
- Before clamping fuel feed hose with quick connector cap, pull quick connector hard by hand holding (A) position. Make sure it is completely engaged (connected) so that it does not come out from fuel feed tube.
