What’s wrong with it?
IF THE HOSE FAILS, FUEL CAN BE SPRAYED ON THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD, WHICH COULD POTENTIALLY LEAD TO AN ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIRE.
ON CERTAIN HEAVY DUTY CLASS 8 DIESEL TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH ASET AC ENGINES, THE LOCATION OF THE FUEL INLET HOSE MAY RESULT IN OVERHEATING OR ABRASION OF THE HOSE, WHICH MAY LEAD TO A PREMATURE FAILURE.
