• Recall84V034000March 23, 1984
  FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:MOUNTING

  ATTACHING BOLTS ON FUEL TANK SUPPORTS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN ADEQUATELY TIGHTENED; ALSO, THE SUPPORTS ARE TOO THIN. HIGH LEVELS OF STRESS, WHICH COULD OCCUR UNDER NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS, COULD CAUSE CRACKS TO DEVELOP IN THE SUPPORT STRAPS. IF THE FUEL TANK SUPPORTS FRACTURE, THE FUEL TANK WILL SLIP FROM THE NORMAL POSITION, AND FUEL LEAKAGE COULD RESULT.

  Remedy

  FUEL TANK SUPPORTS AND FASTENERS WILL BE REPLACED WITHOUT CHARGE.

  STEERING: STEERING WHEEL/HANDLE BAR

  THERE ARE THREE PINCH BOLTS THAT CONNECT TWO UNIVERSAL JOINTS IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND GEARBOX. PINCH BOLTS MAY NOT BE PROPERLY TIGHTENED. STEERING MAY BIND OR LOCK UP.

  Remedy

  THE STEERING COLUMN SHAFT COVER WILL BE REMOVED BY DISENGAGING AND REMOVING THE SELF TAPPING SCREWS IN ORDER TO SECURELY FASTEN THE PINCH BOLTS.
