42C System Operations - 43
Make a fi nal inspection of the engine
and/or generator space and smell for
fumes. If they are present, open all doors
and ports and evacuate the boat. Notify
the Dockmaster and request a qualifi ed
technician to correct the problem. If it is
clear, follow the recommended engine
starting procedure. When storing your
boat for extended periods, it is preferable
to “top-off” the tanks and add fuel condi-
tioner and/or stabilizer. Please refer to the
engine Owner’s Manual for recommenda-
tions.
FUEL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of your fuel system must
also be a high priority. As boats get older,
maintenance may be done by people with
varying degrees of expertise. Materials
and methods previously used may also
change.
