accessible through the engine compar tment
or below remo vable deck plates. The tank is
equipped with a gas fill line, gas vent line,
sending unit and engine fuel pickup as shown.

plate. The fuel manifold valves in the bilge area
control the supply of fuel to the engine(s). Ask
your dealer to show you the proper settings for
the valves.
