- Watch out for leaking fuel when you disconnect the fuel line. After releasing the pressure from the maintenance valve, the amount that leaked was almost 200ml.
- Clean the area very well, you don't want anything to fall in.

Good luck

Where is the maintenance valve? I need to replace my DS valve cover and that fuel hose is definitely going to be an issue.

Thanks!
