Some customers may complain that the fuel tank is difficult to fill up. This concern may be caused by improper

• If there is a restriction, this Service Information is not applicable.
• If there is no restriction, go to next step.
2. Replace the fuel tank with a modified one. Refer to MS3 online instructions or Workshop Manual section 0114.
• For Mazda3: FUEL TANK REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.
• For Mazdaspeed3: FUEL TANK REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.
• For Mazda5: FUEL TANK REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.
3. Verify repair by filling the fuel tank and making sure that the fuel pump nozzle shuts off automatically when
tank is full.
