not been approved by the FAA for aircraft use. Seller makes no representations
or warranties (whether oral, written, implied, or in any other form) as to the
safety and airworthiness of the Fuel System Components or as to the Fuel System
Component's merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose, and Buyer

disclaimers, Seller hereby discloses that any engine equipped with the

flow due to fuel tank unporting and Seller further discloses that partial or
total power loss may occur due to excessive fuel temperature causing the
formation of fuel vapor in the fuel system.
7. Seller discloses that any engine equipped with the Carburetor must use
only aviation fuel and must include an induction heating system that will
provide a minimum temperature rise of 95 degrees F when operating at 75% power.
Seller shall have no responsibility for monitoring or enforcing compliance with

or appropriate. Seller shall have no responsibility for monitoring or enforcing
compliance with these provisions.

alleged breach of any statutory, contractual or common law duty or obligation,
or based upon any other legal theory, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold
Seller harmless, as well as its agents, servants, employees, officers and
directors, from and against any and all loss, expense, damage or injury that
