PROBLEM

Show/hide table

The Fuel Tank Base Assembly on certain C2.2 and C4.4 powered generator sets has a defect that results in the fuel leaking from the primary tank.

The fuel tanks were shipped to dealers with a plastic fuel tank plug or no inner fuel tank plug. This could lead to leaks when the tank is filled.
