SECTION 2
GENERAL OPERATING INFORMATION
Never use untreated gasoline that has been stored for more
than 45 days. Stale gasoline can cause gum deposits to form
in the fuel lines and carburetor. These deposits clog the fuel
system and cause engine starting and operating problems.
When storing the CENTAUR for 45 days or more, use ODG
Part No. 125-85 Fuel Stabilizer to treat fuel in the fuel tank
and fuel containers.
Do not use Bio Diesel with Parker Superflex-FI fuel hose
equipped machines. Please contact manufacturer for
alternative fuel hoses.
*Machines built before May '06 used fuel lines NOT
compatible with bio-diesel fuel.
Centaur 950 and 954 - Gasoline
Use clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 85
octane. Purchase fuel in quantity that can be used within 30
days to assure fuel freshness. We recommend the use of Briggs
& Stratton gasoline additive; ODG part no. 127-77. Leaded
gasoline may be used if it is commercially available and
unleaded is unavailable.
Note: Some fuels, called oxygenated or reformulated
gasolines, are gasolines blended with alcohols or ethers. Ex-
cessive amounts of these blends can damage the fuel system
or cause performance problems. Do not use gasoline which
contains Methanol. If any undesirable operating symptoms
occur, use gasoline with a lower percentage of alcohol or ether.
Keep fuel tank full. Do not over-fill fuel tank. Allow space
for fuel expansion. Check for fuel leaks at fuel filter,
carburetor, fuel pump, etc.
Centaur 950DT - Diesel Turbo
Use clean, fresh diesel fuel with a minimum of 40 cetane.
Purchase fuel in quantity that can be used within 30 days to
assure fuel freshness.
Do not use kerosene or gasoline instead of diesel fuel.
Failure to observe this caution will damage the engine
and void manufactures warranty.
Keep fuel tank full. Do not over-fill. Allow space in tank for
fuel expansion. Check for fuel leaks at fuel filter, injector
pump, fuel lines, etc.
If the fuel tank does run dry, use the priming pump on the fuel
filter to bleed the air from the fuel line then attempt to restart
the engine. You may have to bleed the system several times
in order to restart engine.
2.5 VENTED FUEL SYSTEM
Centaur models have fuel tanks that are vented through a spe-
cial hose connected to the filler neck assembly that runs along
the firewall to a position up under the engine cover.
