FUEL SYSTEM

FUEL SHUT-OFF VALVE

See General Warning, Section 1, Page 1-1.
The fuel shut-off valve is located on top of the fuel tank (Figure 14-18, Page 14-27 or Figure 14-19,
Page 14-27). The fuel shut-off valve should always be turned to the closed (OFF) position during vehicle stor-
age, towing or trailering, or maintenance and service (Figure 14-20, Page 14-27).
Fully Open Position
For the valve to be fully open, it must be turned approximately 120° from the closed (OFF) position (until it can-
not be turned any further) (Figure 14-21, Page 14-27). If the valve becomes partially closed the engine will
not run properly due to fuel starvation (Figure 14-22, Page 14-28).
