Servicing and Checking the Electric Fuel Pump

remove the lower cap of the pump using a 17 mm wrench and replace the
filter element.
(2)
Checking the Electric Fuel Pump Operation
Turn on the ignition switch (generator - preheat).
The pump should
produce a clicking sound.
If the pump does not produce any operating
sound, check with a DC voltmeter to determine that 12 volts is being
supplied to the pump.
If 12 volts is being supplied to the pump and
the pump still does not make any operating sound, replace the fuel
pump assembly.
If 12 volts is not present at the pump, check the unit
circuit breaker, electrical connections and switch.
