Candidate cause (the documents say what to do)
Engine fuel rail crossover tube retainer screws may break (5.3L RPO L59) - recall 04V-376
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
- 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.
- Dealers inspect the fuel rail crossover tube and replace the retainer screws if necessary.
- 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.
- Remove the fuel rail crossover tube bracket retainer screw on one side and dispose of it properly.
- Remove the two new screws from the retainer kit (P/N 89017590) and discard the remaining retainer brackets from the kit.
- Part number 89017590, RETAINER KIT, F/INJN FUEL RL C/OVR TUBE, quantity 1 per vehicle.
Caution: The GM bulletin lists Tahoe and Yukon models because Canadian vehicles are included in the bulletin.
