2460 Denali
Note: Do not overtighten the fuel cap. If the cap is overtightened, the O-ring seal could be
damaged allowing water to contaminate the fuel system.
DO NOT CONFUSE FUEL FILL DECK PLATES WITH THE WATER OR WASTE FILL DECK
PLATES. THESE PLATES ARE ALSO LABELED ACCORDINGLY. IF GASOLINE IS ACCI-
DENTALLY PUMPED INTO THE WATER OR WASTE TANK, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PUMP
IT OUT YOURSELF. WATER AND WASTE PUMPS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO PUMP FUEL
AND A FIRE OR EXPLOSION COULD RESULT. CONTACT YOUR DEALER OR THE PUR-
SUIT CUSTOMER RELATIONS DEPARTMENT FOR ASSISTANCE IN HAVING THE FUEL
PROFESSIONALLY REMOVED.
Fuel Vent
A fuel vent fitting is located on the side of the hull. While the tank is being filled, the air displaced
by the fuel escapes through the vent.
After fueling, replace the fill cap, and wash the areas around the fuel fill plate and below the fuel
vent. Residual fuel left on the deck and hull side can be dangerous and will yellow the fiberglass
or damage the striping.
3.2 Inboard/Outboard Fuel System
The fuel system on the 2460 Denali has one fuel tank. The fuel tank is mounted in the center of
the bilge and has one fuel line equipped with an anti-siphon valve where the fuel line attaches to
the fuel tank. This valve prevents gasoline from siphoning out of the fuel tank should a line rupture.
DO NOT REMOVE THE ANTI-SIPHON VALVES FROM THE SYSTEM. SHOULD AN ANTI-
SIPHON VALVE BECOME CLOGGED, CLEAN AND REINSTALL OR REPLACE. IF A FUEL
LINE SHOULD LEAK, ANTI-SIPHON VALVES PREVENT A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF FUEL
FROM FLOWING INTO THE BILGE. ANTI-SIPHON VALVES ARE REQUIRED, BY THE U.S.
COAST GUARD, TO BE INSTALLED IN ALL BOATS EQUIPPED WITH GASOLINE ENGINES.
Fuel Filter
The engine is equipped with a spin on, water separator type fuel filter. The filter should be checked
frequently and changed at least annually to assure an adequate supply of clean, dry fuel to the
engine. It is recommended that the filter is inspected after the first 25 hours of use and then serviced
as needed. Follow the engine or filter manufacturer’s instructions for servicing or replacing the fuel
filter.
Note: Clean fuel is especially important in fuel injected engines and the engine manufacturer's
recommendations for fuel filter maintenance must be followed exactly.
