as needed. A new base gasket 134706 must
be installed each time the pump base is
removed and reinstalled.

at engine when servicing fuel system.
Take care to catch fuel when opening
filter elements. 00 NOT allow any
smoking, open flames, sparks or other
sources of fire near the fuel system
when servicing. Insure proper ven-
tilation when servicing the fuel
system.
