Hazard
In fuel supply valves installed on carburetor-equipped vehicles, incorrect fuel passage components were assembled, causing the fuel cock position indicator and valve function to be reversed. As a result, when the fuel cock is in the ON position, all fuel is supplied without reserve fuel capacity, potentially causing fuel depletion during operation and rendering the vehicle unable to run.

キャブレター仕様の車両に取り付けられている燃料供給バルブにおいて、誤った燃料経路の部品を組み付けたため、燃料コックの位置表示と当該バルブの機能とが反対になっているものがある。そのため、当該コックがＯＮの位置で全ての燃料が供給されてしまい、予備燃料が確保されず、走行中に燃料切れとなり、走行不能になるおそれがある。
Remedy
Inspect the fuel supply valve on all vehicles and replace valves assembled with incorrect components with serviceable units.
