FUEL TANK
WARNING:
A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be
replaced immediately.
MAINTENANCE
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 a AUTHORISED SERVICE
CENTRE.
SPARK PLUG REPLACEMENT
This engine uses a Champion RY4C or NGK CMR7A
spark plug with 0.6mm electrode gap. Use an exact
