Gasohol

There are two types of gasohol: gasohol
containing ethanol and that containing
methanol. Gasohol containing ethanol
can be used if ethanol content does not
exceed 10% and the fuel meets minimum
octane ratings. Gasohol containing
methanol is not recommended by Yama-
ha because it can cause fuel system dam-
age or engine performance problems.

EMU00858

ENGINE OIL

If the recommended engine oil is not
available, another 2-stroke engine oil with
a NMMA-certified TC-W3 rating may be
used.

Recommended oil:
YAMALUBE 2 STROKE OUTBOARD OIL

Recommended gasoline:

Regular unleaded gasoline with a
minimum octane rating of 86
(Pump Octane Number) = (R+M)/2

EMU01804

GASOLINE

If knocking or pinging occurs, use a differ-
ent brand of gasoline or premium unlead-
ed fuel.
