Fuel requirements
Only use grade of fuels indicated
in the chapter TECHNICAL DATA.
Other grades of fuel can increase
fuel consumption and cause opera-
ting problems, resulting in a shorter
engine service life.
Use of fuel additives can result
in poor performance or engine
damage.
Before starting the engine, make
sure that the fuel level is above the
lower limit. If the fuel level is too
low, add fuel to the upper limit. Do
not overfill.
Use a strainer when filling the fuel
tank. Dirt and dust in the fuel will
cause trouble in the fuel injection
system.
If the boat is not used for an ex-
tended period, fill the tank to the
maximum level.
Fuel prefilter
The fuel prefilter is an optional ex-
tra not in the scope of supply of the
engine. The model of prefilter can
vary according the boat.
NOTICE: Drain the water in the
prefilter several hours after the
engine has been stopped.
1. Close the fuel cock on the fuel
tank.
2. Place a container under the fuel
prefilter. Drain water and remove
impurities using the cock/plug.
3. Tighten the cock/plug once the
water has been drained.
4. Check the filtering element,
change it if necessary.
5. Open the fuel cock.
6. If the filtering element has been
changed, bleed the fuel system.
Start the engine and check for
leaks.
