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. 8 9 ). Draining
the vapor separator will not drain the
fuel filter bowl.
