Service Precaution
When working on the fuel system, there are several
things to keep in mind:
Any time the fuel system is being worked on,
disconnect the negative battery cable except
for those tests where battery voltage is
required.
Always keep a dry chemical (Class B) fire
extinguisher near the work area.
Replace all pipes with the same pipe and
fittings that were removed.
Clean and inspect “O" rings. Replace i
f
required.
Always relieve the line pressure before
servicing any fuel system components.
Do not attempt repairs on the fuel system until
you have read the instructions and checked
the pictures relating to that repair.
Adhere to all Notices and Cautions.
All gasoline engines are designed to use only
unleaded gasoline. Unleaded gasoline must be
used for proper emission control system operation.
Its use will also minimize spark plug fouling and
extend engine oil life. Using leaded gasoline can
damage the emission control system and could
result in loss of emission warranty coverage.
All cars are equipped with an Evaporative Emission
Control System. The purpose of the system is to
minimize the escape of fuel vapors to the
atmosphere.
