ILLING
The fuel system in your Cobalt is externally vented allowing air into the fuel tank as
the engine uses fuel and as the tank is being filled. The chrome vent fitting is on the
side of the boat.
When filling your Cobalt, a small amount of overflow can occur when the tank
becomes full. Be prepared to wash down the area to protect the fiberglass finish and
the gunwale trim. The trim is made of a vinyl material and fuel may stain it if not
cleaned promptly.
YOUR FUEL SYSTEM SHOULD BE CHECKED BEFORE EACH
OPERATION. AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR, HAVE YOUR FUEL SYSTEM
THOROUGHLY CHECKED BY A CERTIFIED COBALT SERVICE
TECHNICIAN. GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE; EXTREME CAUTION
SHOULD BE USED AT ALL TIMES.
