The vehicle (where a record says)

A record is under an engine, a drive or a series only where it says so: the characters of the vehicle identification number filed with a complaint, its text, or what its document says it applies to. A record that does not say is kept as "not stated". The filed numbers and the documents do not tell 4WD from AWD.

Candidate cause (the documents say what to do)

Engine fuel rail crossover tube retainer screws may break (5.3L RPO L59) - recall 04V-376

Applies to: 5.3L only

The engine fuel rail crossover tube retainer screws were not manufactured to specification and may break.

The failed screw was harder than specification; the over-hardening came from a conveyor in an induction hardening operation at the fastener plant stopping or slowing excessively, exposing the screws to the hardening for too long.

What to do

  1. Check for leaks: ignition ON with the engine OFF for 2 seconds, ignition OFF for 10 seconds, ignition ON with the engine OFF, then visually inspect for fuel leaks.
  2. Dealers inspect the fuel rail crossover tube and replace the retainer screws if necessary.
  3. Hold the fuel crossover tube retainer to the bracket on the fuel rail with locking pliers, using enough force to keep the retainer from moving without damaging any parts.
  4. Remove the fuel rail crossover tube bracket retainer screw on one side and dispose of it properly.
  5. Remove the two new screws from the retainer kit (P/N 89017590) and discard the remaining retainer brackets from the kit.
  6. Part number 89017590, RETAINER KIT, F/INJN FUEL RL C/OVR TUBE, quantity 1 per vehicle.
