•
BEFORE drilling any holes, check for internal baffles inside the tank.
•
PRIOR to installation, remove protective caps from ends of pickup tubes.
•
DO NOT apply any type of sealant material to the fuel pickup tube assembly. Doing so will result in plugged fuel
lines.
N N o o t t e e : : Use a magnet, grease or special hole saws/drills that will minimize debris from entering the fuel tank. Thoroughly
clean and flush the tank to remove any debris.
