Today we're going to drain and replace the fuel in a Briggs and Stratton 9T502 Engine. Turn the engine off and let the engine cool at least 2 minutes before removing the fuel cap. Unscrew the cap and place it in a safe space. Using a Vacuum Fuel/Fluid Extractor, place the hose inside. Start to pump the fuel extractor, and leave the leaver still. You will now be able to see the fuel being extracted through the hose.. Remove the hose from the tank carefully and clean up any spillages. When replacing the fuel you may want to use a Fuel Treatment & Stabilizer to keep the fuel fresh. Check the manufacturer's specification for ratios. Do not overfill the fuel tank. To allow for expansion of the fuel, do not fill above the bottom of the fuel tank neck. Finally when you have finished, tighten the tank cap. That's how you drain and replace the fuel in a Briggs and Stratton 9T502 Engine/ M40-450C Mcculloch Lawn Mower.
