need to be primed. Refer to the following fuel priming
procedure. Refer to the engine manual for additional
fuel priming procedures.

sufficient force to penetrate the skin. Before
applying pressure to the fuel system, BE
SURE all connections are tight and lines and
hoses are not damaged. Use a piece of wood
or cardboard to search for suspected leaks. If
injured by escaping fuel, see a doctor familiar
with this type of injury at once or gangrene
