Do not fill the fuel tank above the bottom
of the filler tube. Fuel could overflow if
the snowmobile is tilted or if the ambient
temperature rises, causing the fuel to
warm up and expand.
●
Make sure that the fuel tank cap is
closed securely after refueling. Leaking
fuel can catch fire.
Your Yamaha engine has been designed to
use regular unleaded gasoline with a pump

ter the fuel tank when refueling.

conditions.
