STORAGE
Storing your boat for prolonged periods
of time, such as winter storage,
requires preventative maintenance to
ensure against deterioration. It is advis-
able to have the boat serviced by an
authorized Yamaha Boat dealer before
storage. However, the following proce-
dures can be performed by the owner
with a minimum of tools.
FUEL SYSTEM
Top off the fuel tank with fresh fuel,
adding one ounce of Yamaha Fuel
Conditioner and Stabilizer or an equiv-
alent to each gallon of fuel. A full fuel
tank is less likely to allow condensation
to collect in the tank, reducing the
chance of contaminated fuel. Running
the engines with treated fuel during
cooling system flushing will also help
protect the fuel system.
NOTE:
Use of Yamaha Fuel
Conditioner and Stabilizer eliminates
the need to drain the fuel system.
Consult your Yamaha dealer or other
qualified mechanic if the fuel system is
to be drained instead.
COOLING SYSTEM FLUSHING
➀
Flush Hose Connector
➁
Garden Hose Adapter
➂
Cap
Cooling system flushing is essential to
prevent the cooling system from clog-
ging up with salt, sand, or dirt.
1) Open the cap for the engine you are
going to flush. Press the flush kit
garden hose adapter into the flush
hose connector and turn until they
are securely connected.
2) Start the engine, then immediately
turn on the water supply fully.
l
Never turn on the water before
starting the engine. The water
could flow back through the muf-
fler into the crankcase causing
severe engine damage.
l
Be sure to turn on the water
immediately after starting the
engine to prevent engine over-
heating.
3) Run the engine at a fast idle for 10
to 15 minutes.
