Suction head in the fuel tank

– The fuel filter (1) of the suction head is used to filler the fuel required by the
carburetor.

purpose open the tank cap, use a wire hook and pull out the suction head
through the tank opening. Filters found to have hardened, been polluted or
clogged up are to be replaced.

exceeded. It is therefore important to replace the fuel filter at least quarterly to
ensure satisfactory fuel supply to the carburetor.
