If fuel is spilled, always clean up with dry
rags and dispose of properly on-shore.
Review the Engine section of this Owner’s
Manual for important information
regarding the proper fuel to use, how to
maintain the fuel if the boat will not be
used for a period of time, and other important information regarding the
safe use of gasoline in the boat.
Use of incorrect fuel can result in damage to
the engine that is not covered by the engine
manufacturer nor by Malibu. Failure to
follow maintenance requirements may also
void the warranties.
Malibu recommends returning to shore and refueling whenever the
fuel gauge indicates that the fuel load has fallen below one-quarter (1/4)
of a tank full. It has been determined that continuous operation with
ballast significantly loaded either port or starboard (rather than evenly
distributed) can result in damage to the fuel pump as it attempts to
compensate. Also, even with the best of care, some water may get into the
fuel tank or separate from the fuel that is pumped into it. If there is water
present, it will settle on the bottom of the tank. If the pump begins to reach
any water, it may cause malfunctioning in the engine.
When pumping fuel, do not leave the nozzle unattended in the fuel fill.
Although the fuel system has been manufactured to avoid spit-back of fuel,
and most gasoline dispensers will shut off if removed from fuel fill, it is always
a wise consideration to provide full attention to the process.
