FUEL SYSTEM INSPECTION
Gasoline is highly flammable and
explosive. Failure to check for and
repair any fuel leakage could result
in fire or explosion. A fire or explo-
sion can cause severe injury or
death.
When inspecting the fuel system,
shut off the engine, do not smoke,
and avoid spilling gasoline.
Fuel in hose is pressurized. Fuel can
spray out and cause injury or a fire
hazard if fuel line is disconnected.
Do not attempt to run engine with
fuel line disconnected.
Check the fuel system for leaks, cracks,
or malfunctions. If any problem is found,
consult a Yamaha dealer.
Checking points:
1. Fuel tank leakage
2. Fuel hose joint leakage
3. Fuel hose cracks or other damage
4. Fuel filler clamps and hoses
5. Fuel tank cap (seal) for damage
6. Emission-related components such
as the carbon canister and tank vent
valves
The United States Coast Guard re quires
that all inboard boats like your boat
have visual access to fuel filler clamps
and hoses. The boat has two access
points for this purpose.
One access point is the floor
.
Remove the floor section to see the fuel
tank. The other access point is inside
the port-side storage compartment
.
Remove the seat cushion, then look up
inside the compartment to see the fuel
filler hose and clamp.
