FUEL STRAINERS
At each 50 hour inspection the sti:ainer plug should be
removed from the
fue! injection control valve and the fuel
injection control valve screen washed in fresh cleaning
solvent.
After the strainer plug has been reinstalled and
safetied, the
instailation should be checked for leakage.
The strainer at the bottom of the
fuel selector valve should
also be removed and
cleaned with solvent every 100
hours. To reduce the possibility of contaminated tue!,
always
cap any disconnected fuel lines or fittings.
Ordinarily the finger
strainers in the fuel cell outlets
should not require cleaning unless there is a definite
indication of solid foreign material in the cells or the
airplane has been stored
for an extended period.

maximum range flights should be avoided and
oil level brought to full after each flight du ring
this period.
On the C33 and E33 the engine oil filler cap and the dip-
stick are accessible by opening the access- door on the
left upper engine cowl. The left engine cowl rnust be
raised to check or fill the oil tank on the F33. The sump
capacity is 1
O quarts. Normal operating level should be 8

The oil should be changed and
the oil screen should be
cleaned every
