Gasoline is extremely flammable and can readily
explode if mishandled.
Before performing any service work on the fuel system, read and
understand Section 1 - Service Safety.
Before servicing the fuel system, disable the engine ignition system
to prevent accidental starting of engine.
Fuel leakage can contribute to a fire or explosion. After service

engine momentarily to pressurize the fuel system, then check for
leaks.
Never run the engine with any fuel system component removed or
disconnected.
Check fuel hoses and other nonmetallic components for indications
of damage or deterioration. Always replace components with
genuine factory replacement parts suitable for fuel systems.
Clean up fuel spills immediately and store rags in approved
containers. Keep drained fuel in approved containers for proper
disposal.
When using compressed air to clean or dry parts, make sure air
supply is regulated not to exceed 25 psi [172 kPa / 1.76 kg/cm
