    Preface SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING When an engine is operating, keep the service area WELL VENTILATED or attach a building exhaust removal system to the engine exhaust. Engines produce carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas which is odorless, causes slower reaction time, and can lead to serious injury or death. Fuel under pressure may escape and create a dangerous condition if you are working with fuel lines.
