Propulsion
This section gives a general overview of your propulsion system and how
it works. For a detailed explanation of the engines installed in your boat,
refer to the OEM information.
Fuel Systems
Gasoline Fuel Systems
Each gasoline propulsion engine in your boat is plumbed to the fuel tank
located on the same side of the boat as the engine. The generator draws
fuel from the starboard fuel tank.
Anti-siphon check valves are installed in gasoline fuel systems between
the fuel hose and the fuel tank withdrawal tube. These check valves
automatically stop the flow of fuel if the fuel hose ruptures or becomes
disconnected.
Never remove an anti-siphon check valve from the fuel system. The valves
are important safety components. Clean or replace obstructed or sticking
valves.
Fuel Tanks
Your boat holds a maximum 334gallons of fuel in two tanks. The fuel
tanks are positioned froward of each engine. The fuel system meets or
exceeds the standards set by the U.S. Coast Guard, the Boating Industry
Association and the American Boat and Yacht Council that were in effect
when your boat was constructed. Each fuel tank has passed a rigorous
test conducted by the tank manufacturer. Additionally, the entire fuel
system passed Carver’s own pressure testing and inspection.
Before your boat is delivered, your Carver Dealer also makes a full
inspection of the fuel system. An entry on the Carver Pre-Delivery Service
Record verifies the dealer’s completion of this inspection.
Over time, water can condense inside the fuel tanks, especially in areas with high
humidity. This water can then react with the fuel in the tanks to create a mixture that
can corrode the tanks from the inside. To avoid this:
• Use the fuel in the fuel tanks as often and as completely as possible.
• Keep the tanks full of fuel when the boat is stored and when it is
used infrequently.
• Do not put alcohol-based fuels in the tanks.
• Check the fuel tanks for water accumulation at least once a year.
Fuel Tank vents
Each fuel tank is vented overboard. As the fuel tanks are filled during
fueling, air is displaced from inside the tanks and escapes through the
vents. Conversely, when the engines are running, air enters the fuel tanks
through the vents to displace the fuel being used. Each fuel tank has one
vent, which is combined with its respective fuel fill fitting.
