3.2 Gasoline Engine Fuel System
The gas fuel system has one fuel tank that fills from the
starboard gunnel. The starboard engine is supplied by the
starboard fuel line and the port engine is supplied by the port
fuel line. There is an on/off valve for each supply line located
on the fuel tank near the withdrawal tube. The valves provide
a means to turn off the fuel supply to service the fuel system.
Some engines with fuel injection circulate much more fuel
than they consume to cool the fuel and reduce the possibility
of a vapor lock. Some fuel injected gasoline engines return
the unburned fuel to the fuel tank, while other fuel injected
engines return the fuel to a vapor separating tank on the
engine.
Please refer to the engine owner’s manual for specific
information for the fuel system used on the engines installed
in your boat.
Fuel withdrawal lines are equipped with anti-siphon valves
where the lines attach to the fuel tanks. These valves prevent
gasoline from siphoning out of the fuel tank should a line
rupture.
DO NOT REMOVE THE ANTI-SIPHON VALVES FROM
THE SYSTEM. SHOULD AN ANTI-SIPHON VALVE
bECOME CLOGGED, CLEAN AND REINSTALL
OR REPLACE. IF A FUEL LINE SHOULD LEAK,
ANTI-SIPHON VALVES PREVENT A SUbSTANTIAL
AMOUNT OF FUEL FROM FLOWING INTO THE
bILGE. ANTI-SIPHON VALVES ARE REQUIRED, bY
THE U.S. COAST GUARD, TO bE INSTALLED IN ALL
bOATS EQUIPPED WITH GASOLINE ENGINES.
Gasoline Fuel Filter
Each gasoline engine is equipped with a water separator
type fuel filter located in the engine compartment. The filter
should be checked frequently and changed at least annually to
assure an adequate supply of clean, dry fuel to the engine. It
is recommended that the filters are inspected after the first 25
Typical Diesel Engine Fuel Filter on the Forward Engine Room Bulkhead
hours of use and then serviced as needed. Follow the engine
or filter manufacturer’s instructions for servicing or replacing
the fuel filters.
Note: Clean fuel is especially important in fuel
injected engines and the engine manufacturer’s
recommendations for fuel filter maintenance
must be followed exactly.
3.3 Diesel Engine Fuel System
The fuel system on your boat has one fuel tank that fills from
the starboard gunnel. The starboard engine is supplied by the
starboard fuel line and the port engine is supplied by the port
fuel line.
Diesel engines circulate much more fuel than they consume to
cool and lubricate the fuel injection system. There is a fuel
supply and return line for each engine and the generator. The
return lines return unused fuel to the fuel tank.
Proper diesel engine operation requires a good supply of clean,
dry diesel fuel. Improper marina fuel storage techniques,
limited boat usage, etc. can cause the fuel to become
contaminated. Periodically, it may be necessary to pump
accumulating water and contaminated fuel from the bottom
of the fuel tank. If the fuel system on your boat becomes
contaminated, contact your dealer or the Albemarle Customer
Service Department for assistance.
Algae can grow in the accumulated water in diesel fuel
tanks. This condition is most prevalent in warm climates.
Periodically adding a high quality diesel fuel additive
containing an algaecide may be required to control algae in
your boating area. Please contact your Albemarle dealer or
engine manufacturer for additional information regarding
fuels and additives.
