## What is wrong

THE PROTECTIVE SLEEVE COVERING OF THE RETURN FUEL HOSE    BETWEEN THE PRESSURE REGULATOR AND FUEL RETURN PIPE WAS SHORTENED LEAVING PART   OF THE HOSE EXPOSED.  IN SOME INSTANCES THIS PART OF THE HOSE BECOMES KINKED     DUE TO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT HEAT AND/OR THE ROUTING OF THE HOSE.                                                                                                CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: IF THIS OCCURS IT COULD RESTRICT AND DAMAGE THE RETURN    FUEL HOSE WHICH COULD LEAD TO FUEL LEAKAGE AND CAUSE AN ENGINE COMPARTMENT       FIRE.


## The remedy

NEW HOSE WILL BE INSTALLED WITH A LONGER PREFORMED SLEEVE     DESIGNED TO PREVENT KINKING.  THE REPLACEMENT HOSE WILL BE SECURED WITH SCREW    TIGHTENED CLAMPS ON EACH END.


## Notes

SYSTEM: FUEL/HOSE.DESCRIPTION OF VEHICLE: PASSENGER CARS.
