• Q: How to Service and Repair a Fuel Pressure Regulator on 2007 Toyota RAV4?

  A: The first step for repairing the Fuel Pressure Regulator requires fuel tank assembly detachment followed by fuel tank main tube sub-assembly removal after disconnecting the tube joint clip and fuel tank main tube while checking around the clip area for foreign objects and cleaning the O-ring. Take out the 8 bolts securing the fuel tank vent tube set plate before disconnecting the fuel hose and removing the fuel suction with pump assembly from the fuel tank while being cautious to avoid fuel pump damage and removing the gasket. Begin by unplug the wire harness and utilize needle-nose pliers to detach the E-ring from the fuel sub-tank assembly followed by removing the sub-tank by separating its two claws. The bracket removal requires detachment of 2 claws using screwdriver tools and subsequent removal of 5 claws from the filter to eliminate the fuel pump from its fuel filter position. After this step disconnect the fuel pump connector and uninstall the O-ring. Before installing the fuel pressure regulator onto the fuel filter you should brush 2 new O-rings with gasoline then place them onto the regulator. After affixing the pump harness connector you must prepare a new O-ring with gasoline before installing it into the fuel filter while using the 5 claws for fuel pump mounting. The first step is to reattach the bracket through two claw fasteners then proceed to install the fuel sub-tank assembly with two claw attachment points while connecting the wire harness and adding springs to the shafts of the fuel suction plate. Needle-nose pliers should be used to install a new E-ring. Affix the new gasket to the fuel pump before joining the fuel hose and placing the fuel pump inside the fuel tank without damaging the fuel pump filter. Follow these steps for installing the fuel tank vent tube set plate with its 8 bolts using a torque value of 4.0 N.m (41 kgf.cm, 35 in.lbf). Then proceed to install the fuel tank main tube sub-assembly with its tube joint clip while examining for foreign elements and ensuring tube joint security before ensuring correct clip positioning and completing fuel tank assembly.
