Inspection of Water Separator
Important
Water-contaminated fuel may impair engine
startability, decrease output or damage engine
parts.
The water separator removes water from the
fuel.
Make sure that debris and water have not
accumulated in the cup.
With the float raised, water contamination is
confirmed.
When the float reaches the drain level,
drain the water.
