C. STARTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. HOW FUEL INJECTION STARTING TM WORKS
FUEL INJECTION STARTINGTMprovides a
quick, start feature by. injecting a precise
amount of fuel .directly into the. carburetor
manifold which provides a rich fuel mix for the
first few seconds of operation.
INJECTOR BuI-r ON
- . • Each-time the injector button is pressed and
-.+.:_- ---released, fuel is forced'from'the fuel tank to
'- the accumulator c:hamber.
• The accumulator chamber provides a sec-
ondary fuel supply until the carburetor can
obtain fuel through the primary line
• When the accumulator chamber isfull, fuel
is injected into the carburetor manifold to
provide a rich mixture for starting.
Excess fuel escapes through a drain to
prevent the engine from flooding if the
injector button is pressed too many times.
As a result, a few drops of fuel may appear
on the ground during the starting procedure.
