Draining the Fuel System
You can avoid fuel deterioration
problems by draining the fuel tank
and vapor separator. Before draining
and checking the fuel system, check
the fuel filter for contamination
and/or water accumulation. The fuel
filter must be free of any
contamination before proceeding
(p. 92). Draining the vapor separator
will not drain the fuel filter bowl.

1. Disconnect the fuel tank hose
assembly connector from the fuel
tank (p. 92).
2. Remove the engine cover (p. 80).
3. Release the drain tube from its
clamp along the high pressure fuel
hose and set the end of the tube
toward the outside of the engine
undercase. Place an approved
gasoline container below the end of
the tube, and use a funnel to avoid
spilling gasoline.

Gasoline is highly flammable and
explosive, and you can be burned
or seriously injured when
handling fuel.
• Stop the engine and let it cool
before handling fuel.
• Keep heat, sparks, and flame
away.
• Handle fuel only outdoors.
• Wipe up spills immediately.
