13. FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETOR/FUEL PUMP
FUEL PUMP
CONSTRUCTION:
The fuel pump adopted for this model is a vacuum-type fuel pump which utilizes the positive and
negative pulsating pressures produced by the engine crankcase to control the oil pump diaphragms
and deliver fuel from the fuel tank to the carburetor through the suction valve and outlet valve.

SERVICE INFORMATION
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
• When working with gasoline, keep away from sparks and flames.
• Note the locations of O-rings when disassembling and replace them with new ones during
assembly.
• Before float chamber disassembly, drain the residual gasoline from the float chamber.
• Do not try to disassemble the auto bystarter.
• When assembling the vacuum chamber and air cut-off valve, be careful not to damage the
diaphragms.
• All cables, fuel lines and wires must be routed and secured at correct locations.

tears.
• Be careful not to damage the vacuum
piston diaphragm.

13. FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETOR/FUEL PUMP
FLOAT CHAMBER DISASSEMBLY
Remove the four float chamber screws and
the float chamber.
Remove the float pin, float and float valve.
FLOAT VALVE INSPECTION
Inspect the float valve seat contact area for
wear.

13. FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETOR/FUEL PUMP
JETS/SCREWS REMOVAL
Remove the main jet, needle jet holder and
needle jet.
Remove the slow jet.
Clean the removed the main jet, needle jet
holder, needle jet and slow jet with detergent
oil.
• Be sure to use clean detergent oil.
• Before removing the pilot screw, turn
the pilot screw clockwise until it seats
lightly and record the rotating turns.
Do not force the pilot screw against its
seat to avoid seat damage.

13. FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETOR/FUEL PUMP
AUTO BYSTARTER INSPECTION
/REMOVAL
AUTO BYSTARTER INSPECTION
Measure the resistance between the auto
bystarter wire terminals.
Resistance: 10Ω (10 minutes minimum
after stopping the engine)
If the reading is not within the limit, replace
the auto bystarter with a new one.
Connect a hose to the fuel enriching circuit
of the carburetor. Connect the auto
bystarter yellow wire to the positive (+)
terminal of a battery and green wire to the
negative (-) terminal. Wait 5 minutes and
blow the hose with mouth. If the passage is
blocked, the auto bystarter is normal.
Disconnect the auto bystarter from the
battery. Wait 30 minutes and blow the hose
with mouth.. If air can be blown into the
hose, the auto bystarter is normal.
AUTO BYSTARTER REMOVAL
Remove the two set plate screws and set
plate and then remove the auto bystarter
from the carburetor body.

13. FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETOR/FUEL PUMP
AUTO BYSTARTER INSPECTION
Check the auto bystarter valve and needle
for nicks, wear or damage.
If any faulty part is found, replace the auto
bystarter with a new one.
AIR CUT-OFF VALVE (A.C.V.)
A.C.V. REMOVAL
Remove the two screws and the air cut-off
valve cover.
Remove the spring, diaphragm and O-rings.
Inspect the diaphragm and spring for wear or
damage.

13. FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETOR/FUEL PUMP
Disconnect the hose at the valve seat.
Remove the two screws and the air cut-off
valve body.
CARBURETOR BODY CLEANING
Blow compressed air through all passages of
the carburetor body.
A.C.V. ASSEMBLY
Install the O-ring onto the air-cut-off valve
body and then install the valve body to the
carburetor with the two screws.
• Make sure that no fuel jet is clogged.
• Install the O-ring with the flat face
toward the valve body side.
