FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURIZATION
WARNING : Whenever doing any type of
repair on watercraft or if any components
of the fuel system are disconnected, a pressure
test must be done before starting engine. En-
sure to verify fuel line ends for damage. Al-
ways cut damaged end beforePressure Test
Proceed as followsþ:
– Fill up fuel tank.
– Disconnect air inlet hose of fuel tank from
body.
– Install a hose pincher (P / N 295 000 076) on
fuel tank vent hose.
TYPICAL
1. Disconnect air inlet hose
2. Install a hose pincher to vent hose
– Connect pump gauge tester (P / N 295 000 085)
to air inlet hose.
– Turn fuel valve to OFF position and pressurize
fuel system to 34 kPa (5 PSI). If no leaks are
found, turn fuel valve to ON position and pres-
surize once more.
– If pressure is not maintained locate leak and re-
pair /replace component leaking. To ease leak
search spray a solution of soapy water on com-
ponents, bubbles will indicate leak location.
NOTE :
The system must maintain a pres-
sure of 34 kPa (5 PSI) during 10 minutes.
Never pressurize over 34 kPa (5 PSI).
Reconnect air inlet hose of fuel tank to body.
WARNING : If any leak is found, do not
start the engine and wipe off any fuel leak-
age. Do not use electric powered tools on wa-
tercraft unless system has passed pressure
test.
NOTE :
Before removing the hose pincher,
block with your finger the outlet hole to feel
if air is coming out when removing hose pincher.
This will indicate that pressure relief valve and the
outlet fitting are not blocked.
Remove hose pincher from fuel tank vent hose.
