| Safety measures when working in the supply system |
WARNING | In all works, especially if carried out in the engine compartment, pay attention to the following, considering cramped space: |
| t
| All pipes/hoses of any kind (such as fuel, hydraulic system, activated charcoal filter syste, cooling and refrigerant gas system, brake fluid, vacuum) and all electric harnesses must be installed so as to faithfully restore their original positions. |
| t
| Ensure there is sufficient free space in relation to all moving or hot parts. |
|
| When removing and installing the Fuel level indicator sensor -G- or the Fuel pump (pre-supply pump) -G6-, in full or partially full fuel tanks, pay attention to the following: |
WARNING | Fuel system under pressure! Before disconnecting hose connections, wrap the connection points in a cloth. Then, reduce pressure and carefully disconnect the connections. |
|
| t
| Even before starting works, a suction hose for exhaust gases must be placed near the fuel tank assembly opening, in order to aspirate the fuel gases. If an exhaust gas suction equipment is not available, a radial fan may be used (the engine must be outside the air flow) with a capacity of 15 m3/h. |
| t
| Avoid skin contact with the fuel! Wear fuel resistant gloves! |
