• Where the formation of hydrates or ice is known to
occur, piping should be protected against freezing.The
termination of hard piping should include a sediment trap
where condensate is not likely to freeze.
• A manometer port should be provided.
The manometer port permits temporary installation of a
manometer (Figure 5), to ensure that the engine receives
the correct fuel pressure to operate efficiently throughout
its operating range.
NOTE: A digital manometer, P/N 19495, is available at your
local Briggs and Stratton Power Products service center.
When the initial test runs are completed, the manometer is
removed and the port is plugged.A typical final fuel
connection assembly is shown in Figure 6.
