• Q: How to service and repair the fuel pressure regulator on 2006 Toyota RAV4?

  A: The process of service and repair for the fuel pressure regulator starts with removing the fuel tank assembly then the fuel tank main tube sub-assembly requires joint clip and tube detachment while protecting the O-ring against foreign contamination. The procedure begins by unmounting the fuel tank vent tube set plate through bolt removal before disconnecting the fuel hose while taking out the fuel suction with pump assembly without harming the fuel pump and removing the gasket. The wire harness needs to be disconnected first followed by using needle nose pliers to remove the E-ring from the fuel sub-tank assembly after which the two springs should be detached and the sub-tank can be taken out. Use a screwdriver and tape its tip before disconnecting the fuel pump assembly through the separation of 5 filter claws and unattachment of the fuel pump connector eventually removing the O-ring on the fuel filter. When installing attach the fuel pressure regulator to the fuel filter by first applying gasoline to two new O-rings. Complete the pump connector and lubricate a fresh O-ring with gasoline before fitting it to the fuel filter then connect the fuel pump. Reattach the bracket together with the fuel sub-tank assembly while linking the wire harness and inserting the spring into the fuel suction plate shaft and finishing by putting in a fresh E-ring. Put the repaired fuel pump through the fuel tank by fitting the new gasket followed by the fuel hose and fuel pump installation with caution toward the fuel pump filter. After torquing eight bolts on the fuel tank vent tube set plate to 4.0 N.m (41 kgf.cm, 35 in.lbf) you must install the fuel tank main tube sub-assembly with its joint clips while inspecting for damage and foreign matter before correctly inserting the fuel tube joints and verifying the clips remain undamaged to finish assembling the fuel tank.
