4.
Slide this tube into the remaining hole in the black rubber
stopper.
Note:
The “fill” hole part of the rubber stopper is
not
open
and would have to be opened if you want to add the
“fill” function. After the tank is full, this tube must
have a stopper put in to prevent fuel from leaking out.
Note the orientation of the tubes in the fuel tank rubber stopper.
The portion of the stopper with the “bump” is the front (facing
outward); the smooth surface is the rear (inside the tank) of the
stopper. Also note that the stopper fits over the outside of the
tank neck.
5.
Slide the two black plastic caps over the aluminum tubes as
shown, noting the orientation of the caps. The small inside cap
and the “bumps” face away from the black rubber stopper. The
large outside cap and the “bump” go away from the black rubber
stopper.
6.
Locate the silicone fuel tubing and the metal clunk. Insert the
fuel clunk into one end of the fuel tubing. This assembly will be
used for the fuel pickup inside the fuel tank.
7.
Install the open end of the fuel tubing on the shorter
aluminum tubing.
8.
Carefully insert the assembly into the fuel tank and, using the
self-tapping screw, screw the stopper together firmly. It helps if
the screw has been inserted in the assembly and started — then
insert the assembly into the tank and tighten the screw so the
stopper is snug in the tank. As the screw is tightened, the
stopper parts come together, compressing the rubber stopper
snugly inside the throat of the tank.
