Kawasaki ZX-10R Automobile User Manual


 
FUEL SYSTEM (DFI) 3-137
Fuel Tank
For the California Model, note the following.
CAUTION
For the California model, if gasoline, solvent, water
or any other liquid enters the canister, the canister’s
vapor absorbing capacity is greatly reduced. If the
canister does become contaminated, replace it with
a new one.
Be sure to plug the evaporative fuel return hose to prevent
fuel spilling before fuel tank removal.
WARNING
For the California model, be careful not to spill the
gasoline through the return hose. Spilled fuel is
hazardous.
If liquid or gasoline flows into the breather hose, remove
the hose and blow it clean with compressed air (California
model).
Be careful of fuel spillage from the fuel tank since fuel still
remains in the fuel tank and fuel pump.
WARNING
Store the fuel tank in an area which is well
-ventilated and free from any source of flame
or sparks. Do not smoke in this area. Place the
fuel tank on a flat surface and plug the fuel pipes
to prevent fuel leakage.
Fuel Tank Installation
Note the above WARNING (see Fuel Tank Removal).
Route the hoses correctly (see Cable, Wire, and Hose
Routing section in the Appendix chapter).
Check that the dampers [A] and pad [B] are in place on
the fuel tank as well.
If the dampers are damaged or deteriorated, replace
them.
For the California Model, note the following.
To prevent the gasoline from flowing into or out of the
canister, hold the separator perpendicular to the ground.
Connect the hoses according to the diagram of the sys-
tem (see Cable, Wire, and Hose Routing section in the
Appendix chapter). Make sure they do not get pinched or
kinked.
Route hoses with a minimum of bending so that the air or
vapor will not be obstructed.
