fUelIng
Indmar Assault MPI 330 & Assault 340
Use a gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 89. See engine
owner’s manual for more information.
Indmar Assault MPI 409
Use a gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 92. See engine
owner’s manual for more information.
DO NOT use gasoline containing methyl alcohol (methanol).
Methanol can damage your boat’s fuel system.
E-10 fuels require fuel stabilizers that are specifically
designed for E-10 fuels to help prevent moisture absorbtion,
phase separation and gasoline stabilization.
Gasoline stabilizer should be added to the fuel tank when the
boat is used infrequently or whenever your boat will not be
used for two weeks or more. During storage always add gasoline
stabilizer to reduce gumming or tank sludge.
SPARKS WHILE FUELING COULD
CAUSE AN EXPLOSION!
befoRe fUelIng:
1. Turn o engine.
2. Turn o ignition.
3. Extinguish cigarettes or any open ame.
WHIle fUelIng:
Keep hose nozzle in contact with ll pipe to provide a ground
against static sparks.
Fill tank at a slow rate to avoid any spillage.

fIllIng THe Tank
Be especially careful when lling the fuel tank. DO NOT
overll the tank. Overlling can damage the system’s carbon
lters and render the emissions control useless.
If fuel is spilled on stripes or decals, apply a common bath
cleaner (nonabrasive) and wipe with a damp cloth. Rinse the
spill area with clean water.
fUel CaP
The fuel cap is located on the rear deck, 2-4 feet from the stern.
To open, push black tab located on the bottom side of the
gas cap. When the black tab is pushed, the gas cap will hinge
upward.
To close, push the gas cap down. When the gas cap is completely
closed a “click” sound should be heard. The audible “click”
ensures that the gas cap is closed and sealed.
The new fueling system prevents spillage from occurring. Air is
allowed to escape from the front and rear of the gas tank. Both
vents are on a central fuel line, which run to a central holding
container for the vapor. The vapor is released over time. This
type of venting system allows for the tank to be lled without
building any back pressure. Without back pressure, spillage
should be completely eliminated from the fueling process.
This venting system doesn’t allow water to enter the fuel system.
In the unlikely event that water runs up against the fuel vent, the
fuel vent has a one-way valve. The one way valve allows for air
to release, but denies water from entering. The gas cap itself is
sealed with a rubber seal. When the gas cap is “clicked” closed
the seal prevents any water from entering the system.
