Fuel tap parts

Caution! Do not wash the vacuum valve parts and membranes with carburetor cleaner or other strong solvents. The rubber parts of the valve and the membrane material are destroyed by contact with them. Use only clean gasoline, diesel fuel or kerosene for cleaning.

It is necessary to thoroughly wash the sump and the internal cavities of the tap with carburetor cleaner, and then blow it out with compressed air

We inspect the membrane and the vacuum valve. There should be no cracks, tears or other mechanical damage on the membrane material. The rubber seal of the vacuum valve should also not be damaged or broken. If any parts of the membrane are damaged, it must be replaced as an assembly.
