This is a general outline and may not be entirely accurate for your specific vehicle. Always refer to your repair manual.
General Steps (Consult your repair manual for specifics):
1. Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal of the car battery. This prevents accidental electrical shocks and short circuits. Work in a well-ventilated area, away from any open flames or sparks. Fuel is highly flammable.
2. Access the Fuel Pump: This usually involves dropping the fuel tank. The exact method varies greatly depending on the 106 model. You might need to:
* Raise the vehicle securely on jack stands.
* Remove the underbody panels to access the tank.
* Drain the fuel tank. This is crucial to minimize spillage and work more easily. You will need a suitable container.
* Carefully lower the fuel tank – this may involve disconnecting various lines and sensors.
3. Disconnect the Fuel Pump: Once you have access to the fuel pump assembly (it's usually located within the fuel tank), you'll need to:
* Disconnect the electrical connector.
* Disconnect the fuel lines. You may need special tools to prevent fuel leakage. Be prepared for some fuel spillage, even with careful work.
* Disconnect the fuel sender unit (if integrated with the fuel pump).
4. Remove the Fuel Pump: This might involve removing a retaining ring or clamp holding the pump in place within the tank. The method varies.
5. Install the New Fuel Pump: Reverse the removal process, ensuring all connections are secure and tight. Pay close attention to the orientation of the fuel pump and any seals.
6. Reassemble: Carefully raise the fuel tank back into its position. Reconnect all fuel lines, sensors, and the electrical connector.
7. Reconnect Battery Terminal: Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
8. Prime the Fuel System (Crucial): You'll likely need to prime the fuel system. This involves cranking the engine for a short period (with the ignition key, not the starter motor) before trying to start the engine. This ensures the fuel pump is working and the system is properly filled with fuel.
Important Considerations:
* Fuel Spillage: Expect some fuel spillage. Take appropriate precautions.
* Fuel Line Clamps: Use the correct clamps to prevent leaks.
* Electrical Connections: Ensure all electrical connections are clean and secure.
* Seals and Gaskets: Replace any worn seals or gaskets.
* Torque Specifications: Use the correct torque specifications when tightening bolts and connections. This is critical to prevent leaks and damage.
* Professional Help: If you're not comfortable working with fuel systems or are uncertain about any step, it's best to take your car to a qualified mechanic.
Again, emphasizing the importance of using a repair manual specific to your 1995 Peugeot 106 1.1 XN cannot be overstated. This detailed response is a general guide and shouldn't be considered a replacement for professional advice or a proper workshop manual. Safety is paramount when working with fuel systems.
