PREPARATION FOR STORAGE OR SHIPMENT
Fuel System
1.
Equip an auxiliary fuel container (Figure 17, Item 50) with a fuel line and fill container with a sufficient
amount of preservation oil.
2.
Locate the auxiliary fuel container (Figure 17, Item 50) to provide adequate pressure for proper supply of
preservation oil to the fuel system.
3.
Disconnect fuel line (Figure 17, Item 52) at inlet of fuel pump (Figure 17, Item 53) and connect auxiliary fuel
line (Figure 17, Item 51).
4.
Disconnect the engine fuel return at the quick disconnect coupling (Figure 17, Item 55). Connect a
