Refueling - Honda GX240 Owner's Manual

SERVICING YOUR ENGINE

REFUELING

With the engine stopped and on a level surface, remove the fuel tank
cap and check the fuel level. Refill the tank if the fuel level is low.
MAXIMUM FUEL LEVEL
(strainer type)
Refuel in a well-ventilated area before starting the engine. If the engine
has been running, allow it to cool. Refuel carefully to avoid spilling fuel.
Do not fill the fuel tank completely. Fill tank to approximately 1 inch
(25 mm) below the top of the fuel tank to allow for fuel expansion. It
may be necessary to lower the fuel level depending on operating
conditions. After refueling, tighten the fuel tank cap securely.
