Preutions Alwys disonnet ttery les from ttery BEFORE working on fuel system to prevent fire or explosion. Be reful when hnging fuel system omponents; gsoline is extremely flmmle nd highly explosive under ertin onditions. Be sure tht ignition key is OFF. DO NOT smoke or llow soures of sprk or flme in the re while hnging fuel filters. Wipe up ny spilled fuel immeditely. Mke sure tht no fuel leks exist efore losing engine hth.! CAUTION DO NOT operte engine without ooling wter eing supplied to sewter pikup pump, or pump impeller will e dmged nd susequent overheting dmge my result. Avoid gsoline fire or explosion. Improper instlltion of rss fittings or plugs into fuel filter se n rk sting nd/or use fuel lek. Apply #592 Lotite Pipe Selnt with Teflon to threds of rss fitting or plug. DO NOT USE TEFLON TAPE. Thred rss fitting or plug into fuel filter se until finger tight. Tighten fitting or plug n dditionl 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 turns using wrenh. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. Instll fuel line. To prevent over-tightening, hold rss fitting with suitle wrenh nd tighten fuel line onnetors seurely. Chek for fuel leks. Fuel Delivery System Reommendtions Boting industry stndrds (BIA, ABYC, et.) federl stndrds nd Cost Gurd regultions MUST BE dhered to when instlling fuel delivery system. When designing nd instlling fuel delivery system, the following informtion MUST BE oserved: 1. Fuel tnk should e mounted elow ruretor level, if possile. If tnk is mounted ove ruretor level, grvity feed my use ruretor fuel inlet needle to unset, nd flooding my result. 2. Fuel pikup should e t lest 1 in. (25 mm) from the ottom of the fuel tnk to prevent piking up wter or other impurities. 3. Fuel lines used MUST BE Cost Gurd pproved (USCG type A) nd MUST NOT BE SMALLER THAN 3/8 in. (9.5 mm) I.D. On instlltions where long lines or numerous fittings re required, lrger size lines should e used. 4. Fuel line should e instlled free of stress nd firmly seured to prevent virtion nd/or hfing. 5. Shrp ends in fuel line should e voided. 6. A flexile fuel line must e used to onnet fuel line to engine to sor defletion when engine is running. Desription The fuel system onsists of fuel tnk(s), wter seprting fuel filter, n eletri fuel pump nd ruretor. The fuel is stored in the fuel tnk. When the fuel pump is energized y turning on ignition swith, fuel is drwn from the fuel tnk, through the wter seprting filter, y the eletri fuel pump. The fuel is pushed through the fuel line to the ruretor where it is metered nd supplied to the engine. 5A - 2 - FUEL PUMP 90-816462 2-695
