MAINTENANCE SERVICE

1. FUEL SYSTEM (TANK, PIPE LINE AND CONNECTION, AND FUEL TANK FILLER TUBE CAP) (CHECK FOR LEAKS)
Check for damage or leakage in the fuel lines and connections.

2. FUEL HOSES (CHECK CONDITION)
1. Inspect the surface of fuel hoses for heat and mechanical damage. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions and excessive swelling indicate deterioration of the rubber.
2. If the fabric casing of the rubber hose is exposed by cracks and abrasions in the fuel system, the hose should be replaced.
