Fuel Pressure: Service Precautions

FUEL SYSTEM
When servicing the fuel system use the following cautions:

- Put a "CAUTION FLAMMABLE" sign in the workshop.
- Be sure to furnish the shop with the proper fire extinguisher.
- Be sure to disconnect battery ground cable before any service work is done.
- Place a suitable container under the connection to be opened.
- Slowly open connection, allow pressure to escape, and catch spilled fuel in container.

NOTE: If available, use system bleed valve (schrader) to relieve pressure.

- Disconnect line or hose, then plug all fittings.
- Put any drained fuel in an explosive-proof container and put the lid on securely.
