Systems
£ ¤ ¥ ¦
The fuel system consists of a fuel tank, fuel fi ll fi ttings, fuel hoses,
fuel vents, anti-siphon valve, internal tank valves, fuel fi lter, fuel gauge
and sender. Each one of these components plays an important role
in providing an uninterrupted fl ow of fuel while operating your boat.
Refer to the technical drawing section for system specifi cs.
Fuel Tank
Select overseas vessels use a polyster tank. Boats manufactured for
domestic use are now required to be EPA compliant and will be outfi tted with an
aluminum tank.
This system uses parts such as a valve located inside
the fuel tank and can not be serviced. Also, there is a carbon canister
which functions much like the one in an automobile located between
the fuel tank and hull side vent. This canister under normal usage
requires no service. These tanks are tested along with the complete
fuel system for safety requirements and quality in house. Also, they are
inspected independently by National Marine Manufacturers Association
personnel.
The fuel fi ll fi tting is labeled “gas” and in addition displays the
international symbol (See the next page). When fueling the boat keep
the fi ll nozzle in contact with the fuel fi ll pipe since it decreases static
electricity. Always use the recommended fuel octane rating as specifi ed
in your engine owner’s manual.
Extinguish all fl ame producing agents before fueling!
