FUEL LINES
Read DANGER and WARNING on page 14-1.
The fuel lines must be properly routed, and all hose clamps must be tight. The fuel lines should be kept
clean. See following WARNING.
Fuel line No. 1 runs directly from the fuel tank to the primary fuel filter. The primary fuel filter has an arrow
indicating fuel flow direction. (Figure 14-16, Page 14-19).
Fuel line No. 2 runs directly from the primary fuel filter to the fuel inlet of the fuel pump.
Fuel line No. 3 runs directly from the fuel outlet of the fuel pump to the secondary fuel filter. The secondary
fuel filter has an arrow indicating fuel flow direction and is identical to the primary fuel filter.
Fuel line No. 4 runs from the outlet of the secondary fuel filter to the carburetor.
Small spring steel band clamps are used on all hose connections except at the carburetor. A screw band
clamp should be used at the carburetor. (Figure 14-16, Page 14-19)
FUEL SHUT-OFF VALVE
Read DANGER and WARNING on page 14-1.
The fuel shut-off valve is located on top of the fuel tank (Figure 14-20, Page 14-25). The fuel shut-off valve
should always be turned to the closed (OFF) position during vehicle storage, towing or trailering (Figure 14-
21, Page 14-26). Unless the engine will be run as part of a procedure, the fuel shut-off valve should also be
turned OFF before performing maintenance or service procedures.
Fully Open Position
The valve’s open position differs from standard valve configurations. For the valve to be fully open, it must
be turned approximately 120° from the closed (OFF) position (until it cannot be turned any further)
(Figure 14-22, Page 14-26). If the valve becomes partially closed, the engine will not run properly due to
fuel starvation.
• MAKE SURE FUEL LINES ARE THE RIGHT LENGTH AND ARE PROPERLY ROUTED. FAILURE
TO HEED THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO FUEL LINES AND FIRE.
