CHECKING THE FUEL CAP
WARNING
A leaking fuel cap is a re hazard and must be replaced
immediately.
The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable lter and
check valve. A clogged fuel lter causes poor engine
performance. If performance improves when the fuel cap
is loosened, the check valve may be faulty or the lter may
be clogged. Replace the fuel cap if necessary.
