The reason it¶s overlooked is there¶s
not much mentiOn of service for the
pump in the TM'sµ
So, does that mean toss it out when
it fails a troubleshooting test?
Not necessarilyµ That pump does
more than just move fuelµ ·t also
co¸tains the first filter for fuel and the
filter can get clogged and dirty just like
any otherµ
And when it gets c³ogged, dirty fuel
goes right on thr¹ the li¸e;causing a
loss of power, maybe engine stoppage´
Dunk the fºlter and the pump cap»in
drycleaning solvent (P¼D-680)µ Keep
that stuff off your skin and have good
ventilationµ
