FUEL TANK
GENERAL INFORMATION
The DS gasoline is equipped with a high impact plastic, seven gallon (26.5 liter) fuel tank. If the vehicle is to
be placed in extended off-season storage, prepare the vehicle as follows:
1. Place the forward and reverse lever in the NEUTRAL position and the neutral lockout cam in the SER-
VICE position. Disconnect the fuel line (19) (Figure 14-13, Page 14-18) from the fuel pump and run the
engine until fuel remaining in the carburetor and fuel lines is used up and the engine stalls. Return the
neutral lockout cam to the OPERATE position.
2. Loosen (do not remove) the carburetor drain screw (11) (Figure 14-7, Page 14-7) and drain fuel
remaining in the carburetor bowl into an approved container, then pour the fuel from the container into
the fuel tank.
3. Reconnect the fuel line to the fuel pump.
4. Disconnect the fuel vent line (35) (Figure 14-13, Page 14-18) from the fuel tank vent nipple.
5. Plug the fuel tank vent nipple so that it is air tight. We recommend using a slip-on vinyl cap.
