TEST INSTRUCTIONS Socket POPPET & FLOAT MOVEMENT adaptor FOR TESTABLE MODELS ONLY TOOLS NEEDED FOR TESTING : 1 . 1 /4" square drive extension or 3 /8" square drive ex- tension with 3 /8" to 1 /4" socket adapter . 2 . Torque wrench / 1 /4" or 3 /8" square drive ratchet wrench . 3 . Pipe dope . 4 . Flashlight (optional ) . Open Poppet Closed Poppet TEST STEP 1 : Remove spill container cover and fill cap from fill adapt- Test Figure 1 er and look down into the tube and make sure no debris Pull on extension and or foreign objects are present . If debris or foreign ob - socket adaptor jects are present take appropriate steps before proceed - ing . Look down into the tube and ensure poppet is completely protected by the deflection shield . See Test Figure 1 . If poppet is exposed and tank is not full the overfill valve should be replaced . A flashlight may help __ } when inspecting the tube . TEST STEP 2 : Unthread the socket adaptor assembly from the inlet tube using a 1 /4" square drive extension and wrench . l The extension will attach to the socket adaptor . Secure all tools to ensure they don 't fall into the tank or valve . _ With the extension still attached pull on the socket _-- — — - - -_ — ._ — adaptor and cable assembly and ensure float and pop- — — — It should only require 3 "pet move / properly . ` to 4" of movement and less than 5 lbs of force in order k .r to actuate the float and poppet. When looking down into the upper tube ensure poppet is visible and moves into the flow path (see Test Figure 1 & 2) when socket Open adaptor is pulled and resets properly when socket adap- Poppet Closed for is released . If poppet does not actuate freely take \ Poppet Float moves appropriate steps to correct . N up TEST STEP 3 : Apply pipe dope to the socket adaptor threads . Pipe dope should be a non - hardening gasoline resistant pipe thread seal compound . Make sure poppet and float have reset properly and are not visible then install sock- et adaptor and torque to 3 .5 ft- lbs (42 in - lbs) minimum to 5 .0 ft- lbs (60 indbs) maximum . After installing socket adaptor, to ensure vapor tightness, OPW recommends conducting pressure testing per CARB TP201 . 1 D . Some Test Figure 2 areas may require pressure testing of overfill valve per CARB TP201 . 1 D to ensure valve is vapor tight . If the drop tube fails pressure testing it may be necessary to check the seal at the poppet adaptor threads . Reinstall fill cap and spill container cover after testing . 17
