leaks. Repair any fuel leaks before operating the vehicle.
13. Allow the engine to run for a few minutes to ensure that the fuel lines are full of fuel.
14. Inspect each fuel line for leaks.
14.1. Check all of the fuel line clamps at the carburetor, fuel filters, fuel pump, and fuel tank for leaks.
14.2. Inspect each fuel line to ensure that the lines are not cracked, cut, or worn.
