The Fuel System, Fig.
2,
consists of the Fuel
Tank, Fuel
Lines, Fuel Filter, Fuel Pump. Carbure-
tor and Air Cleaner.
The most important attention
necessary to the
fuel system is to keep
it
clean and free of water.
It should be periodically inspected for
leaks.
The fuel tank capacity is given on Page
3.
The
tank sets in
a
sump in the floor pan and two drain
holes are incorporated in this sump to
allow for
flushing. When the vehicle leaves the factory a
cap is placed over the front drain hole tokeep out
stones and dirt and another
is placed in the glove
compartment.
Sliould maneuvers in water be neces-
sary, insta11 the second cap over the rear drain hole
from the left
side of the vehicle. After passing
through the water
remove cap and return it to the
glove compartment.
CAUTION-Whenever the vehicle is to be stored
for an extended period, the fuel system should be
completely
drained. The engine.started and allowed
to run until carburetor is emptted. This wil1 avoid
oxidation of
tlie gasoline, resulting in the formation
of gum in the units of the Fuel System.

Carburetor
The Carter Carburetor, Model WO-539S, Fig.
1,
is the plain tube type with
a
throttle operated
accelerator pump and economizing
device.
Since carburetion is dependent in several ways
upon both compression and ignition, it should al-
ways be checked last in an engine tune-up.
The carburetor
delivers the proper fuel and
air
ratios for
al1
sp~eds of the engine. By proper
cleaning and replacing
al1 worn parts, the carbure-
tor wil1 function correctly.
The carburetor can be divided
int0 five circuits
which are:
1.
Float Circuit
2.
Low Speed Circuit
3.
High Speed Circuit
4.
Pump Circuit
5. Choke Circuit
By treating each circuit separately,
the
study
and repair of the carburetor is made much easier.
