Tools Required

• J 43290  Fuel Tank Siphon Hose Assembly. See Special Tools .
• SA9127E  Gage Bar Set

If fuel pump is inoperative, the tank can be drained by siphoning from the tank. A suitable means is through the fuel filler pipe with the correct type and stiffness of tubing as used with the J 43290  . See Special Tools .

For any operation requiring removal of the fuel tank, there should be no more than 11.4 liters (3 gallons) of fuel remaining. This minimizes the weight of the assembly and eases handling. The fuel level can be determined by reading the fuel level gage. A reading below 1/4 full indicates that no more than 11.4 liters (3 gallons) are remaining.
