ET98 SHUTOFF/LOCKOFF WITH FILTER
REPAIR KIT INSTRUCTIONS RK-ET98
Important: Any maintenance, service or repair should
be performed by trained and experienced service
technicians. Proper tools and equipment should be
used to prevent injury to the servicing technician,
property or system components. Service repairs
should always be performed in a safe environment
and the technician should always wear protective
clothing to prevent injury.
The IMPCO PPI-118 repair kit instructions will provide
the technician information to successfully repair the
ET98 Lockoff with Filter.
NOTE: This repair kit cannot be used to repair an
ET98 not originally equipped with an integrated
fuel filter.
Always inspect the major casting pieces for damage,
corrosion, cracks, or pits before attempting a service
repair.
PRIOR TO ANY REPAIR OR MAINTENANCE:
1. Close the valve on the LPG or Natural Gas source.
2. Run engine until it stalls from lack of fuel.
Do not allow LPG to contact the skin. LPG is
stored in the fuel tank as a liquid. When LPG
contacts the atmosphere, it immediately ex-
pands into a gas, resulting in a refrigeration ef-
fect that can cause severe burns to the skin
and/or eyes.
