4. Fuel filter service and fuel tank cleaning
Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions.
Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area.
1. Check that the oil filler cap is tightened securely.
2. Remove the fuel tank cap and drain the fuel into an approved gasoline
container by tipping the pump toward the fuel filler neck.
3. Pull the fuel filter out through the fuel filler neck by hooking the black fuel tube
with a piece of wire, such as a partly straightened paper clip.
4. Check the fuel filter of its dirt. If the fuel filter is dirty, wash it gently with
nonflammable or high flash point solvent. If the fuel filter is excessively dirty,
replace it.
5. Rinse sediment from the fuel tank, using nonflammable or high flash point
solvent.
6. Insert the fuel filter into the fuel tank and tighten the fuel tank cap securely.
