Fuel System
Fuel Lines
1. Check fuel lines for signs of wear, deterioration, damage
or leakage. Replace if necessary.
2. Be sure fuel lines are routed properly and secured with
cable ties.
CAUTION: Make sure lines are not kinked or
pinched.
3. Replace all fuel lines every two years.
Fuel Filter
The RANGER XP 4x4 and 6x6 EFI engines use a non-
serviceable, high-volume, high-pressure, 60-micron internal
fuel pump filter and an internal 10-micron filter located before
the pump regulator. Neither filter is servicable.
NOTE: For all other information related to the EFI
fuel system refer to Chapter 4.
Vent Lines
1. Check fuel tank and transmission vent lines for signs of
wear, deterioration, damage or leakage. Replace every
two years.
2. Be sure vent lines are routed properly and secured with
cable ties.
CAUTION: Make sure lines are not kinked or
pinched
Throttle Pedal Inspection
If the throttle pedal has excessive play due to cable stretch or
cable misadjustment, it will cause a delay in throttle speed.
Also, the throttle may not open fully. If the throttle pedal has no
play, the throttle may be hard to control, and the idle speed may
be erratic.
Check the throttle pedal play periodically in accordance with the
Periodic Maintenance Chart and adjust the play if necessary.
WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive
under certain conditions.
Always stop the engine and refuel outdoors or in
a well ventilated area.
Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in
or near the area where refueling is performed or
where gasoline is stored.
Do not overfill the tank. Do not fill the tank neck.
If you get gasoline in your eyes or if you swallow
gasoline, seek medical attention immediately.
If you spill gasoline on your skin or clothing,
immediately wash it off with soap and water
and change clothing.
Never start the engine or let it run in an enclosed
area. Engine exhaust fumes are poisonous and
can result loss of consciousness or death
in a short time.
Never drain the fuel when the engine is hot.
Severe burns may result.
