STARTING
INSTRUCTIONS
1. HOW
FUEL INJECTION
STARTING
TM
WORKS
FUEL
INJECTION
STARTINGTMprovides
a
quick,
start
feature
by. injecting
a precise
amount
of fuel .directly
into the. carburetor
manifold which provides a rich fuel mix for the
first few seconds of operation.
INJECTOR
BuI-r ON
- . • Each-time the injector button is pressed and
-.+.:_- ---released, fuel is forced'from'the
fuel tank to
'- the accumulator
c:hamber.
• The accumulator
chamber
provides
a sec-
ondary fuel supply until the carburetor
can
obtain fuel through
the primary line
• When the accumulator
chamber
is full, fuel
is injected
into the carburetor
manifold
to
provide
a rich mixture for starting.
Excess
fuel
escapes
through
a drain
to
prevent
the
engine
from flooding
if the
injector
button is pressed
too many times.
As a result, a few drops of fuel may appear
on the ground during the starting procedure.
