FUEL CAP
WARNING:
A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be replaced im-
mediately.
The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable filter and a check valve.
A clogged fuel filter will cause poor engine performance. If perfor-
mance improves when the fuel cap is loosened, check valve may
be faulty or filter clogged. Replace fuel cap if required.

This engine uses a Champion RCJ-6Y or NGK BPMR7A spark
plug with .025 in. electrode gap. Use an exact replacement and
replace annually.
