Gas Engine Fuel Filters
• The fuel pickup tube located inside each fuel tank is equipped with a fine mesh screen filter.
• In addition, a fuel filter is installed on the fuel line.
• Periodically replace the fuel filters to make sure they remain clean and free of debris.
• Talk to your selling dealer or local marina about fuel additives that help prevent fungus or other buildup in your
fuel tanks.
Fuel Filter/Water Separators (Diesel Engines Only)
Fuel Transfer Pump (Diesel Engines Only) (If Equipped)
The fuel transfer pump can be used to
transfer fuel to a nearly empty tank or to
equalize the fuel level in each tank.
1. The house battery switch must be
turned On for the fuel transfer
pump to run.
2. Before transferring fuel, check the
fuel gauges to make sure that fuel is
not about to be transferred into a
full (or nearly full) tank. For accu-
racy, check the fuel gauges when
the boat is not underway.
3. After checking the fuel levels, hold
the fuel transfer switch On to the
side you want to pump fuel to.
NOTE: This switch must be held
On throughout the entire fuel trans-
fer process.
4. When the desired amount of fuel has been transferred, release the switch.
• If, after following the above instructions, the fuel transfer pump does not run, check the pump’s push-to-reset
breaker on the DC push-to-reset breaker panel (for the location of this panel, see Chapter 2 of this
Owner’s Manual).
• If the pump is running, but you are having problems transferring fuel, see if the fuel transfer hose or fuel tank vent
hose is kinked or collapsed. If there are no visible signs of a problem, contact your local dealer.
Refer to the fuel filter/water separator manual for important service instructions.
NOTICE
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD!
• NEVER transfer fuel into a full (or nearly full) fuel tank.
• Fuel transferred into a full tank may spill overboard through the tank venting system.
