FUEL
Fuel Requirements
Cobalt fuel systems are designed to meet all
current ABYC and NMMA regulations using
gasoline with up to 10% ethanol.
Fuel that contains more than 10% ethanol voids all
warranties and will increase the risk of damage to
the engine, fuel system components and will also
lead to the following:
• Corrosion of metal parts
• Deterioration of plastic, rubber parts or
permeation of fuel through rubber fuel lines
• Leaking fuel resulting in explosion and/or fire
• Starting and operating difficulties
• Potential damage to your engine
Fueling
Take care not to spill gasoline. If gasoline is
accidentally spilled, wipe up all traces of it with dry
rags and immediately dispose of the rags properly
ashore. Spilled fuel may yellow the gelcoat finish
and damage gunwale trim.
A
WARNING
DO NOT use fuels containing methanol
(methyl alcohol) or other fuels with more
than 10% ethanol (ethyl alcohol) content
such as E85, which contains 85%
ethanol.
A
DANGER
Avoid injury, fire or explosion. Take all
precautions every time you fuel your
boat, regardless of the fuel type. Certain
fuel is extremely flammable and highly
explosive under certain conditions.
Fumes from rags can collect in bilge and
be extremely hazardous. Operate the
blowers for at least four minutes. DO
NOT store rags used to wipe up fuel or
solvent spills in the boat. Dispose of
rags properly ashore.
NOTICE: Prevent unwarranted
engine damage. Use the
recommended fuel type and
octane rating. Refer to your
propulsion unit operator’s
manual.
A
DANGER
Avoid injury, fire or explosion. Fuels are
extremely flammable and highly
explosive under certain conditions.
• Stop engines, generators and any fuel
operated machinery.
• DO NOT smoke or allow open flames
or sparks within 50 ft (15 m) of the
fueling area.
• Avoid damaging fuel lines and
connectors, and the contact of fuel on
hot engine parts.
• DO NOT store fuel in any containers or
compartments which are not
designated for fuel storage.
• Clean up any spilled fuel immediately
and dispose of rags properly ashore.
• Know the dangers associated with
fuels.
NOTICE:
• Each time you refuel, inspect
all fuel lines, hoses and
connections for leaks and
deterioration.
• The Federal Water Pollution
Control Act prohibits the
discharge of oil or oily waste
into the water. Violators can be
fined $5,000.00. We urge you
to protect our fragile
environment by avoiding any
type of discharge, trash or
litter into our waterways.
