Attention! Gasoline is flammable, so take all precautions when working on any part of the fuel system. Do not smoke or leave open flames or unprotected lamps in the workplace, do not work in the garage with appliances and devices powered by natural gas (such as titanium or dryer), if there is a burning wick. If you spill gasoline on your skin, wash it off immediately with soap and water. When doing any kind of work on the fuel system, wear safety goggles and have a special gasoline fire extinguisher handy.
