Fuel System

Avoid serious injury, or death from gasoline fire, or explosion. Carefully
follow all fuel system service instructions. Always stop the engine, and DO
NOT smoke or allow open flames, or sparks in the area while servicing any
part of the fuel system.
Before servicing any part of the fuel system, stop engine and disconnect the battery.
Drain the fuel system completely. Use an approved container to collect and store
fuel. Wipe up any spillage immediately. Material used to contain spillage must be
disposed of in an approved receptacle. Any fuel system service must be performed
in a well ventilated area. Inspect any completed service work for signs of fuel
leakage.

other signs of deterioration or damage. If any of these conditions, are found, the fuel
line or primer bulb must be replaced.
