CLEANING FUEL SEDIMENT CUP 7.3 CLEANING FUEL SEDIMENT CUP The sediment cup prevents any dirt or water that may be in the fuel tank from entering the carburetor. Clean fuel sediment cup at the intervals specified in Table 7-1. To clean fuel sediment cup, you will need: ‰ 10 mm box wrench ‰ 22 mm open end wrench ‰ Household soap and water ‰ Clean, dry cloth To clean fuel sediment cup: 1. Stop the engine if it is running. Allow to completely cool. 2. Place generator on a flat, level surface. 3. Turn the fuel shut-off valve to the OFF position. 4. While holding the fitting above the fuel shut-off valve with a 22 mm open end wrench, remove the fuel sediment cup assembly (sediment cup, o-ring, and fuel screen) using a 10 mm box wrench. FIGURE 7-11: Fuel Sediment Cup Assembly Removal A B C FIGURE 7-12: Fuel Sediment Cup Assembly 5. Clean the fuel screen (A), o-ring (B), and sediment cup (C), with soap and water. 6. Rinse parts thoroughly with water. 7. Wipe the pieces clean with a clean, dry cloth. 8. Reinstall the sediment cup, o-ring, and fuel screen. 9. Turn the fuel shut-off valve to the ON position. 10. Start generator and check for leaks. 7.4 SPARK PLUG SERVICE To ensure proper engine operation, the spark plug must be properly gapped and free of deposits. WARNING If the engine has been running, the spark plug will reach temperatures that could cause severe burns. Do not touch. 1. Measure the spark plug gap with a wire feeler gauge. Gap should be: 0.028-0.031 in. (0.70-0.80 mm). .028 - .031 in. (.70 - .80 mm) FIGURE 7-13: Correct Spark Plug Gap 2. If necessary, adjust gap by carefully bending side electrode. 3. Torque spark plug to 28 N•m (21 lb. ft.). NOTICE The spark plug must be securely tightened. An improperly tightened spark plug can become very hot and damage the engine. NEVER use spark plugs that have an improper heat range. Use only recommended spark plugs or equivalent.
