Clean all components prior to evaluation. Remove and discard all seals and gaskets. If needed, use a gasket
remover or equivalent to assist in removing gaskets. Do not scrape the surface in attempt to clean since it could
gouge and damage the surface. Rinse all components of cleaner solvents prior to reassembly.
WARNING
Explosive fuel can cause res and severe burns.
Do not ll fuel tank while engine is hot or running.
Gasoline is extremely ammable and its vapors can
explode if ignited. Store gasoline only in approved
containers, in well ventilated, occupied buildings, away
from sparks or ames. Spilled fuel could ignite if it
comes in contact with hot parts or sparks from ignition.
Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.
