Note: It is important to reinstall the fuel line hoses and
secure with plastic ties the same as they were originally
installed at the factory to keep the fuel line away from
components that could cause fuel line damage.

Servicing the Fuel Tank

Do not attempt to drain the fuel tank. Ensure that an
Authorized Service Dealer drains the fuel tank and
services any components of the fuel system.
