(a) Use the fuel sampler (GSE 022) to push the drain valve poppet up to<br />
open the drain valve. Refer to GSE Appendix.<br />

amount of fuel.<br />
NOTE: Make sure that the drain valve poppet is in the closed position<br />
and that there is no fuel leak.<br />
(2) Visually examine the collected fuel for contamination. If you see microorganisms<br />
or other unwanted matter in the fuel, use a Fuel Microorganisms<br />
Test Kit (Microb Monitor 2) to check for the presence of microorganisms.<br />
Obey the instructions of the test kit manufacturer.<br />
NOTE: Refer to the full instructions (aviation fuel item) to do the procedures.<br />
