Defect Involved

General Motors has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 1995 Chevrolet Astro Vans with L35 engines. These vans may have fuel lines attached to the fuel tank with less than the specified torque. During the life of the vehicle, as a result of normal vibrations, these fuel lines may loosen to the point of allowing fuel to leak from the lines when the pump is operating. If an ignition source were present, an under-vehicle fire could occur.

To correct this condition, dealers are to lower the fuel tank and tighten the fuel lines to the proper torque value.
