Warning: Do not fill the fuel tank while the engines are running. Do not allow smoking or
open flames within 50 ft. of the fueling area. Fuel is very flammable. To prevent damage to
the engines, use only fuels without harsh additives or alcohol. Refer to your engine
owner’s manual for specific fuel requirements.
4.5 Fuel System Maintenance
Regularly inspect the fuel system components. All lines, fittings, and bulbs should be flexible and
not corroded. If fittings or other components are found to be cracked, they should be replaced at
once. If you use your boat infrequently or do not use it for an extended period of time, a fuel
conditioner should be added to a full tank of fuel to prevent fuel deterioration and damage to the
fuel system.
4.6 Fuel Filters
Fuel filters are installed on the backside of the aft deck access doors. These are fuel/water
separator type of filters and are designed to prevent water from entering your engine. The fuel
filter element is a spin-off type element. At a minimum, this element should be replaced at the
beginning of every boating season. Always carry a filter wrench and spare filter of the type
supplied on your boat.
