  Q: How to service and repair the fuel tank on Toyota Solara?

  A: Service and repair of the fuel tank begins with discharging the fuel system pressure before moving on to remove the rear seat cushions for all models followed by the rear floor service hole cover. Begin the fuel tank service by removing the fuel pump tube sub-assembly together with the fuel tank vent tube set plate and fuel pump assembly while you drain the fuel. First remove the floor panel brace rear and the center Exhaust Pipe assembly by taking out 2 bolts, 4 nuts and the exhaust pipe together with its associated 2 gaskets. The No.2 and No.3 Parking Brake Cable assemblies should be disconnected by removing the set bolts and nuts from each component. Take four bolts out to remove the fuel tank protector lower center before pulling down the fuel pump tube by pinching its tab and removing the lock claws. Check the connector for any contamination during this process. After pinching the tube connector you should pull out the fuel tube No.1 while inspecting each connector for any sign of contamination. A transmission jack goes beneath the fuel tank and operators should remove the 2 watershed bolts securing the fuel tank bands and do a hose disconnect operation on both the fuel tank to filler pipe ( 1) and the fuel tank vent ( 2) from the charcoal canister through locking pin release then A pinching and connector extraction. The fuel tank removal procedure begins by removing 2 pins and 2 fuel tank bands and the 4 clip nuts successively. First disconnect the fuel tank from the fuel filler pipe hose and the fuel tank vent hose from the charcoal canister ( 2) by pushing the connector deep into the canister while using portion A to pinch. Then remove the fuel tank vent hose along with the fuel pump tube sub-assembly and the fuel main tube support. The first step involves installing seven new fuel tank cushions onto the fuel tank before tightening the fuel main tube support to 5.4 N.m (55 kgf.cm, 48 in.lbf). Then install the fuel pump tube sub-assembly and fuel tank vent hose. Install the fuel tank assembly through steps of securing 4 clip nuts and attaching 2 fuel tank bands with 2 pins while connecting the fuel tank vent hose and fuel tank inlet pipe to the fuel filler pipe clamp and tightening the set 2 bolts of the fuel tank bands to 39 N.m (400 kgf.cm, 29 ft.lbf). Connect Fuel Tube No.1 after pushing the connector until it clicks and inspect for any damage or foreign objects. Then connect the fuel pump tube by following the connector with the retainer lock installed. Begin by installing the fuel tank protector lower center with 5.4 N.m (55 kgf.cm, 48 in.lbf) torque after which you should attach the No.3 and No.2 parking brake cable assemblies using a torque of 5.4 N.m (55 kgf.cm, 48 in.lbf). Use 2 new gaskets to assemble the center exhaust pipe together with the exhaust pipe while using 2 bolts and 4 new nuts that need to be tightened to a torque value of 56 N.m (571 kgf.cm, 41 ft.lbf). The last steps include installing the fuel pump assembly while adding fuel and examining leakages then installing the rear floor service hole cover with rear seat cushion assembly for Coupe or without rear seat cushion assembly and installing the floor panel brace rear.
