WARNING
EAS00819
CHECKING THE FUEL PUMP
Gasoline is extremely flammable and under
certain circumstances there can be a danger
of an explosion or fire. Be extremely careful
and note the following points:

Stop the engine before refueling.

Do not smoke, and keep away from open
flames, sparks, or any other source of fire.

If you do accidentally spill gasoline, wipe it
up immediately with dry rags.

If gasoline touches the engine when it is
hot, a fire may occur. Therefore, make sure
the engine is completely cool before per-
forming the following test.
1. Check:

Fuel pump operation
a. Insert the plug
1 to fuel return hose end.
b. Fill the fuel tank.
c. Put the end of the fuel hose into an open con-
tainer.
d. Connect the battery (DC 12 V) to the fuel
pump coupler as shown.
Positive battery lead

e. If fuel flows out of the fuel hose, the fuel pump
is OK. If fuel does not flow, replace the fuel
pump.
