FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION

FUEL LEVEL
A fuel level test can be performed on some models if
the drain hose fitting is accessible. Be sure to
re-attach the bowl drain hose after performing the
test. A fuel level test allows you to observe the height
of the fuel in the float bowl without removing the
carburetor. The fuel level can be observed with the
engine either running or shut off, however, engine
must run briefly to allow fuel level to stabilize..
1. Attach a clear line to drain fitting. Be sure line fits
tightly on fitting. Position hose along side of
carburetor as shown.

2. Open bowl drain screw by turning
counterclockwise approximately two turns. Start
and run engine for 3 to 5 seconds to allow fuel
level to stabilize in the line. If level is out of
specification, remove carburetor and inspect inlet
needle and seat, float height, passages, etc.
NOTE: If a line was removed to perform this
procedure, it must be replaced.
