Modifying the Dragon for use with the External Fuel Pick-up
Use of the Dragon with the external fuel pickup provided can significantly extend the run time. Converting the Dragon for
use with the pickup requires a one-time modification of the external fuel line connections. Follow these instructions
carefully.

Wrenches
Small tube cutter
Rags or paper towels
Pipe thread sealant or Teflon
®
tape
Dissassembly and preparing fittings
1. Remove fuel lines from fuel tank fitting.
2. Re-route return line outside of fuel filter bracket
3. Remove the existing fuel tank fitting from the tank. Slide
fitting off of fuel pickup tube and discard fitting.
4. Using a tube cutter, cut off metal pickup tube
approximately ½ in. below the brass compression sleeve
as shown.
5. Disconnect the fuel pick-up line from the filter adapter.
6. Disconnect the filter adapter from the filter (filter may
hang free at this point).

Prepare threaded fittings. To ensure a proper seal, use a
liquid thread sealant or Teflon tape on all pipe thread
fittings. Leave the first two threads dry in order to ensure a
tight seal.
Attach new fuel tank pickup assembly to tank using
supplied grommet and jam nut. Orient the assembly as
shown in the next frame, and use the jam nut to hold the
assembly in place. Ensure that the assembly is tightened
firmly over the foam seal.
