water and alcohol mixture becomes heavy enough to settle out of the gasoline to the bottom of the
tank. Since the fuel pick up tube is very near the bottom of the tank, phase separation can cause
the engine to run very poorly or not at all. This condition is more severe with methyl alcohol and
will worsen as the alcohol content increases. Water or a jelly like substance in the fuel filters are
an indication of possible phase separation from the use of alcohol blended fuels.
If the engines are raw water cooled and used in saltwater, flush the cooling system after each daily
use. To flush the system when the boat is out of the water, follow the procedure outlined in your
engine owner’s manual.
