Pull off fuel return line and
check that clear (not turbid) fuel
emerges.
If fuel has separated, heat up the
engine or drain the entire fuel
supply system.
Refill with a fuel mixture that is
resistant to low temperatures.
Change engine oil; use correct
viscosity grade.
Check battery; Contact specialist
workshop if necessary.
If possible, declutch or other-
wise disconnect the engine from
the machinery it is used to drive.
Check electrical system and its
components; consult a specialist
