vents out at both the fuel fill plate and the
vent located on the side of the hull. Note:
There should not be any residual fuel at the
vent but there could be residual fuel at the
deck fill plate. Do not block or restrict either
of these vents.

gauge while filling. Once fueling is completed
wash the areas around the fuel fill(s) to help
reduce discoloration of the fiberglass or strip -
ing. Use only the fuel recommended by the
outboard manufacturer; refer to the engine
owner’s manual for additional information.
If fuel is added to any other tank, DO NOT
attempt to pump fuel out, these systems are
not designed to pump fuel. Fuel must be
removed by qualified personal only. Fuel in
other systems will also require replacement
of that system and/or many components.
