what tool to disconnect ??

elephantrider · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 8:20 pm

replacing the part that is throwing an evap code, but dont know what kind of tool it is to get this disconnected. wanted to try and find out before yanking on it and breaking something. the little blue pc slides back and forth, so i figure its some sort of specialty plier ?

its the connection in the middle of the shot here -

Have you checked the FSM?

I think there's a tool to remove the clip - but I might be looking at the wrong part

yep, whats strange is that the pn that the dealership sold me is differnent that what is on the bom, and i didnt see any info on tools to remove / repair each individual parts.
did i miss it ?

I was looking at ch 14 - fuel system and they're not special tools - just interlocks - push things sideways and they unlock - screwdriver to pop it off.
(I haven't worked on the system you're looking at)

jasonk. what is that part? My Jeep has been giving me an Evap code as well for the past month or so, but I figured it was becasue of the gas cap and the cold weather we've been having. The code goes away when the outside temp rises above 60 degrees. The little engine light bugs the hell outta me though :evil:

Thanks for any info you can provide

i have the paperwork at home.
on the kj bom explosion, the part number is 52128696AC vapor purge harness.
i had to buy a different pn from the jeep house.

if you have the 05 kj parts explosion ( or whatever your year may be, not sure if its the same or different ) it is -

Group 25 Emissions System
Emission harness
Fig. 25.420 Emission Vacuum Harness.
#2 on the diagram

Hard to tell but cant you just push in on the side(the blue part) and slide it on? When you let go it will lock in place.

What did that poor libby ever do to you to make you sell it?

elephantrider · **Posted:** Tue Jan 08, 2008 7:41 pm

well, thats the thing. you cant push it far enough over for it to release.
seems like you have to have some tool to get it to release all the way, so hopefully one of our trusted mechanic types will chime in with some info.

i dont know if my libby will sell or not ! thought i priced it low enough for a quick sale, but no calls so far.

not sure what we're going to get afterwards. those diesel gc's are super sweet, but so is a rubicon.

I have some special little plastic tools that are meant to remove ac lines and such, they are basically a big round sleeve that you push over a line that uniformly pushes the retaining spring(s) apart and allows you to pull the line out. I got it at checker, came with a bunch of different diameter ones each a different color.......maybe something like that?

Also, those diesel libbies are sweet, maybe check one of those out.

If you're willing to take one that's still owed $16K on, I'll take that trade.
