6.1 TANK AND SUPPLY
GENERAL INFORMATION
The supply system consists of a petrol tank con-
nected to the carburettor by a pipe. A mesh filter on
the bottom of the tank stops deposits and impurities
from reaching the carburettor.
The supply to the carburettor float chamber is
caused by gravity and the volume of petrol taken
from the tank as the engine runs is compensated by
a breather pipe in the cap.
The supply system can malfunction in the following
ways:
• difficult or failed start or insufficient power (if not
due to other causes):
= Petrol filter dirty [
6.1.B];
= Petrol pipes clogged
= Inefficient breather pipe [
6.1.C
].
