Gasoline Containing Alcohol
The implementation of ethanol-based fuel is spreading rapidly
throughout the United States. As such, PCM Engines and Nautique
provide the following information regarding the use of this fuel.
This information addresses the use of ethanol fuels in PCM Engines
and Nautique boats.
If ethanol blended fuel rated E10 or less is used, or if the presence
of alcohol is uncertain, inspections and service of the complete fuel
system are required more frequently. Any sign of fuel leakage or
deterioration must be repaired immediately before further engine
operation. It is also important to know that ethanol blended fuel
will act as a solvent and will attract and hold moisture.
NOTICE
Fuel system or engine damage caused by contamination from
water, foreign particles, sludge, or gums entering or forming in the
fuel system is not covered by the engine’s limited warranty.
Getting Underway
DO NOT use any gasoline that contains
METHANOL. This fuel is very corrosive and will create
unsafe operating conditions to the boat’s fuel system
and serious damage to the engine. Any engine damage
caused by the use of methanol will not be covered by
the engine’s warranty.
CAUTION
Use of ethanol blended fuel rated E10 or less
is acceptable. DO NOT use fuels rated higher than E10.
Ethanol fuels rated higher than E10 could potentially
damage the engine and/or present an unsafe boat fuel
system. Damage to the engine resulting from the use of
ethanol fuel rated higher than E10 IS NOT covered by
the engine’s warranty.
CAUTION
