2000 Saturn SLFACTORY OEM SERVICE PROCEDURE

Fuel Line

The fuel line (and EVAP canister purge line) is a multi-layer nylon tube covered with a protective, extruded sheath and molded to the correct routing configuration. The lines are mounted to the underbody with polymer clips and secured by stamped nuts to studs.

All connectors are quick connect design and incorporate dual O-rings for an effective seal.

The fuel and EVAP line are not repairable, and neither are the connector bodies. They must be serviced as a unit if they leak or are damaged, kinked, or crimped.
