Installing a New Fuel Line on the 2022 Can-Am Renegade 570

Fuel line work has a reputation for being messy, and it earns that reputation when the sequence gets skipped. Do it in the right order on a 2022 Renegade 570 and it stays clean. The critical piece of knowledge is the fuel system: the Rotax single in this quad is injected, not carbureted. That means an in-tank electric pump, a supply hose that carries pressure whenever the key is live, and no petcock anywhere to shut off flow.
Ventilation and Fuel Handling Come First
This is the one safety point worth spelling out. Gasoline vapor is heavier than air, so it sinks and pools at floor level rather than dissipating upward. From there it drifts toward whatever ignition source is in the space — a furnace pilot, a water heater, an angle grinder throwing sparks. Cracking a window accomplishes almost nothing. Open the overhead door all the way, or better, push the Renegade out into the driveway. Wear nitrile or rubber gloves, keep the drain container lidded between pours, and disconnect the negative battery cable so the fuel pump cannot spin while a line is open.
Why the Original Hose Is Wearing Out
Fuel hose is a chemical product with a finite life. The plasticizers that keep it soft slowly leach out over years of exposure to fuel, heat, and air, and what remains is rigid and prone to cracking. Once flexibility is gone, ordinary vibration from trail use and the heat cycling off the engine drive small fissures into the wall until one goes through. The section closest to the throttle body typically shows it first because it runs hottest.
Where the machine lives affects the timeline. Dry, low humidity air continually draws moisture out of the hose wall, so quads in arid country harden well before those kept in damp climates. Ethanol blended pump gas works the other surface, attracting water into the fuel and softening the inner liner into a gummy layer that releases particles downstream. A 570 that sat with stale fuel in the system through a long break can be deteriorating internally with nothing visible outside.
Signs the Line Needs Attention
Give the hose a proper inspection with the plastics off. Look for gasoline pooled on the skid plate or a stain on the floor beneath the tank after the quad has been parked. Note any fuel smell hanging around the tank, which is most pronounced right after shutdown while the line is still pressurized. Examine the rubber for hairline cracking, crazing, and a chalky surface film, then pinch it – a serviceable hose rebounds while a hardened one feels like conduit.
Running symptoms count as evidence too. Bogging under load, a lean stumble when you snap the throttle, or an engine acting like it is out of fuel with a half tank remaining all suggest restricted or leaking supply. A ring of caked dust at a fitting shows where fuel has been seeping and evaporating. Since the system is pressurized, a small leak can atomize into vapor entirely, so an unexplained smell over a dry floor still warrants a full check of every joint.
The Parts and Tools You Will Want
- Replacement hose rated for fuel injection pressure and matched to the original inside diameter
- New clamps in the right sizes, or a kit spanning the range
- Line clamping pliers, which take the place of the fuel valve this model does not have
- A quick disconnect release tool if your tank fitting uses a locking coupler
- A sealed metal or approved plastic container for the fuel you drain
- Gloves, a sharp razor knife, hand tools for the seat and plastics, and a stack of rags
Avoid substituting general purpose carburetor tubing. It is designed for gravity feed pressure and will weep at the clamp or balloon over time on an injected machine.
Removal Without a Mess
Pull the fuel pump fuse or relay and crank the engine until it quits, which bleeds pressure out of the supply hose. Turn the key off and disconnect the battery negative. Remove the seat and side plastics, then trace the line from the tank fitting to the throttle body so you know exactly what you are dealing with.
Set the catch pan and lay a rag over each connection before opening it, since residual fuel remains even in a depressurized line. Walk the clamps back along the hose, then twist each end to release the varnish bond rather than yanking. Quick connect fittings come apart by pressing both locking tabs evenly and pulling the coupler straight off in line with the barb; angled pulls crack collars that have aged in the heat. If an end is fused solid, slit the hose lengthwise and peel it away rather than fighting the fitting.
Record the routing while it is intact. On a 4x4 chassis like this one the line runs past front differential hardware and extra frame structure that a two wheel drive quad does not carry, adding clips and clearance points worth photographing.
Fitting Up and Proving the Repair
Cut the new hose to the original length exactly. Surplus tubing will rub the frame or interfere with steering travel, which just brings you back here next season. Push each end fully onto its barb until it bottoms against the shoulder, dry, with nothing applied to the sealing surface. Grease, oil, and silicone all create the leak path you are trying to eliminate. A quick dip in hot water is the only assembly aid a tight hose needs.
Set new clamps just behind the bead and tighten them evenly. Where the Renegade uses a self locking quick connect, push until it clicks and then pull firmly to confirm the latch caught; no clamp goes on that joint. Reseat the hose in its factory clips, clear of the front driveline and away from exhaust heat.
Finally, prove it dry. Reinstall the fuse, Reconnect the battery, and cycle the key on and off several times so the pump pressurizes the circuit with the engine off. Wipe both joints, then look and feel for weeping. Start the machine, let it idle a few minutes, and inspect again before the bodywork goes on. Bear in mind that the filter on this model rides inside the tank with the pump assembly, so a restriction there will not be cured by fresh hose.
