#### TESTING

##### Static Pressure

CAUTION
Never smoke when working around gasoline! Avoid all sources of sparks or ignition. Gasoline vapors are EXTREMELY volatile!

1. Disconnect the fuel line at the carburetor. Using a T-connector, connect two rubber hoses to the connector, then install it between the fuel line and the carburetor fitting.

   NOTE: When disconnecting the fuel line, be sure to place a container under the line to catch the excess fuel which will be present.

2. Connect a fuel pump pressure gauge to the T-connector and secure it with a clamp.
3. Start the engine and check the pressure at various speeds. The pressure should be 2.8–3.8 psi (19.3–26.2 kPa). There is usually enough gas in the float bowl to perform this test.
4. If the pressure is OK, perform a capacity test. Remove the gauge and the T-connector assembly, then reinstall the fuel line to the carburetor.

##### Capacity Test

1. Disconnect the fuel line from the carburetor and place the line in a graduated container.
2. Fill the carburetor float bowl with gas.
3. Start the engine and run it for one minute at about 1,000 rpm. The pump should deliver 1.5 liters of volume per minute.
