Fuel Systems

When servicing the fuel system observe the following cautions:

^ Place a "CAUTION: FLAMMABLE" sign in the workshop.
^ Furnish the shop with the proper fire extinguisher.
^ Disconnect the battery ground cable before any service work is done.
^ Place a suitable container under the connection to be opened.
^ Slowly open fuel connections, allow pressure to escape, and catch spilled fuel in container.

NOTE: If available, use system bleed valve (schrader) to relieve pressure.

^ Disconnect line or hose, then plug all fittings.
^ Put any drained fuel in an explosive-proof container and put the lid on securely.
