Body - Fuel Filler Door Customer Error Damage

Date: July 12, 2011

Order No.: P-B-88.60/85

Group: 88

SUBJECT: MY-All, Model 204.0, 207, 212, 218.3
Fuel Filler Door and Tank Recess





Recurring warranty claims for door and tank recess components are usually customer error in jamming the fuel filler door. If closed and openly properly, the mechanism is nearly impossible to jam. Notify the customer of the proper way to open the fuel filter door by showing them the cross-hatched press area in Figure 1 that corresponds with the locking mechanism on the inside (1).

If the Push System is damaged, replace it separately. Remove and install the tank recess as outlined in WIS document: AR88.60-P-2000CW (204.0) or AR88.60-P-2000EW (207, 212, 218.3).
