FUEL SYSTEM (DFI) 3-23
DFI Servicing Precautions
○
Before removing the fuel system parts, blow the outer sur-
faces of these parts clean with compressed air.
○
When any fuel hose is disconnected, fuel may spout out
by residual pressure in the fuel line. Cover the hose joint
with a piece of clean cloth to prevent fuel spillage.
○
When installing the fuel hoses, avoid sharp bending, kink-
ing, flattening or twisting, and route the fuel hoses with a
minimum of bending so that the fuel flow will not be ob-
structed.
○
Route the hoses according to C able, Wire, and Hose
Routing section in the General Information chapter.
○
To prevent corrosion and deposits in the fuel system, do
not add to fuel any fuel antifreeze chemicals.
○
Replace the fuel hose if it has been sharply bent or kinked.
○
If the motorcycle is not properly handled, the high pres-
sure inside the fuel line can cause fuel to leak or the hose
[A] to burst. Bend and twist the fuel hose while examining
it.
Replace the hose if any cracks or bulges are noticed.
○
To maintain the correct fuel/air mixture (F/A), there must
be no inlet air leaks in the DFI system. Be sure to install
the oil filler plug [A] after filling the engine oil.
