WARNING: Adhere to the following procedures any time the fuel system is being worked on in order to reduce the risk of fire and personal
injury:

-

Keep a dry chemical (Class B) fire extinguisher near the work area.

-

Place a "CAUTION FLAMMABLE" sign in the work area.

-

Work in a well-ventilated area. Do not smoke, and keep sparks and open flames away.

-

Wear eye protection.

-

Use caution when working near the catalytic converter to prevent the possibility of burns or fire. (The temperatures within the converter can
exceed 537 degrees C (1000 degrees F).)

-

Relieve the fuel system pressure prior to disconnecting fuel system components.

-

Disconnect the negative battery cable except for tests where battery voltage is required.

-

Use a suitable container to store or catch fuel.

-

Do not replace fuel pipe with fuel hose.

-

Plug all disconnected fuel line fittings and hoses.

-

After making any fuel system repairs ALWAYS inspect for fuel leaks.
