Engine Oil

To prime the fuel system if a mechanical fuel pump
is installed:

1. Operate the fuel priming lever (Figure 4-4, (1))

several times until the fuel filter cup
(Figure 4-4, (2)) is filled with fuel.

2. NEVER use the starter motor to prime the fuel

system. This may cause the starter motor to
overheat and damage the coils, pinion and / or
ring gear.
