INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Check on Fuel Leakage
1. Turn ignition switch “ON” (with the engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, make sure
there are no fuel leaks at connection points.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking at points out of clear sight.
2. Start the engine. With engine speed increased, make sure again that there are no fuel leaks at connection
points.
CAUTION:
Do not touch the engine immediately after stopped, as the engine becomes extremely hot.
