The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable filter and a check
valve. A clogged fuel filter will cause poor engine perfor-
mance. If performance improves when the fuel cap is
loosened, the check valve may be faulty or the filter
clogged. Replace fuel cap if required.

SPARKING PLUG

This engine uses a Champion RCJ-6Y with 0.63 mm
(0.025 in) electrode gap. Use an exact replacement and
replace annually.

WARNING:

A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be
replaced immediately.
