Fuel-Water Separator & Drain
Fuel-Water Separator
The Yamaha Fuel-Water Separators are installed behind
the rear access panel on the starboard transom side along
with the fuel system primer bulbs. The new, improved 10-
micron filter provides superior filtration ahead of the
engine's on-board filters and injectors.
Large filtering and water capture areas maximize filtration
while maintaining adequate flow rate for larger engines.
The fuel separator can be checked by removing it from the
mounting bracket and dumping it into an approved waste collection device. If there
appears to be an excessive amount of water, the filter component should be replaced.
See your authorized Cobia Dealer for replacement parts.
Garboard Drain Plug
The garboard drain plug is the small metal plug located at the
lowest point on the hull, at the bottom of the transom right above
the keel. The drain has been designed so that it can be loosened
by hand while the hull is out of the water for draining. This
allows the plug to stay in contact with the surrounding frame so
you’ll never misplace or lose it. You can completely remove the insert by pulling back
and continue turning in a counter-clockwise motion. It is manufactured with a rubber
seal in place to ensure your bilge is watertight. Always make sure before putting the boat
in the water that this plug is hand tightened firmly. Excess water in the bilge may be an
indication of a problem with this plug or the automatic bilge pump.
Maintenance Note: Yamaha recommends replacing the 10-
micron fuel filter on new boats after the first 10 hours or 1 month of
operation and every 50 hours or every 6 months thereafter. In
areas of high humidity where water in fuel supplies is a problem or
extensive engine operation occurs, more frequent replacement
