FUEL TANK
WARNING!
A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be replaced immediately.
The fuel cap contains a sealing gasket and a check valve to ventilate built up fuel gasses.
A clogged check valve will cause poor engine performance.If performance improves when
the fuel cap is loosened,the check valve may be faulty.Replace fuel cap if required.
The fuel supplied to the engine is passed through a filter to remove any contaminants from entering the
engine.Contaminants in the fuel can cause poor performance and damage to the engine.
The fuel filter is a non-serviceable item and if needed should be replaced by an AUTHORISED SERVICE
CENTRE.
