– Connect pump gauge tester (P/N 295 021 800)
to air inlet hose.
NOTE: This pump is included in the ENGINE LEAK
TESTER KIT (P/N 295 500 352).
– Turn fuel valve to OFF position and pressurize
fuel system to 34 kPa (5 PSI). If no leaks are
found, turn fuel valve to ON position and pres-
surize once more.
– If pressure is not maintained locate leak and re-
pair/replace component leaking. To ease leak
search spray a solution of soapy water on com-
ponents, bubbles will indicate leak location.
NOTE: The system must maintain a pressure of
34 kPa (5 PSI) during 10 minutes. Never pressur-
ize over 34 kPa (5 PSI).
Reconnect air inlet hose of fuel tank to body.
WARNING
If any leak is found, do not start the engine
and wipe off any fuel leakage. Do not use
electric powered tools on watercraft unless
system has passed pressure test.
NOTE: Before removing the hose pincher, block
with your finger the outlet fitting to feel if air is
coming out when removing hose pincher. This will
indicate that pressure relief valve and the outlet
fitting are not blocked.
Remove hose pincher from fuel tank vent hose.
