430 Sports Coupe
FUEL SYSTEM (CROSSOVER VALVE)
Your yacht is equipped with an internal fuel system meeting current
federal requirements. The best materials and components available
are used to assemble the fuel system.
The fuel tank outlets to the engines have a manual valve for fuel
shutoff in the event of a line break. To access the manual valves or
tank fittings, open the fuel access hatch. The valves are on the top of
the fuel tank. These valves are attached to the fuel tank outlet and
return lines. The valves are closed when the handle is perpendicular
to the fuel line, and open when the handle is in line with the fuel line.
There are also crossover valves between the tanks located at the top
of the fuel tanks under the fuel access hatch.
Fuel fill caps are located on the deck walk-around of the yacht. Near
the fill cap is a vent which allows air to move in and out of the tank as
the fuel level changes.
The manual valves on the crossover panel can control the fuel supply
to the engines:
