WARNING
Fuel leakage is a fire or explosion hazard, which can cause serious injury or
death. Periodically inspect all fuel system components for leaks, softening,
hardening, swelling, or corrosion, particularly after storage. Any sign of
leakage or deterioration requires replacement before further engine
operation.
IMPORTANT: If you use gasoline that contains or might contain methanol or
ethanol, you must increase the frequency of inspection for leaks and
abnormalities.
IMPORTANT: When operating a Mercury Marine engine on gasoline containing
methanol or ethanol, do not store the gasoline in the fuel tank for long periods.
Cars normally consume these blended fuels before they can absorb enough
moisture to cause trouble; boats often sit idle long enough for phase separation
to take place. Internal corrosion may occur during storage if alcohol has
washed protective oil films from internal components.
Fuel Additives
To minimize carbon deposit buildup in the engine, it is recommended to add
Mercury or Quicksilver Quickstor fuel stabilizer additive to the engine's fuel at
each tank fill throughout the boating season. Use additive as directed on
container.
Low Permeation Fuel Hose Requirement
Required for outboards manufactured for sale, sold, or offered for sale in the
United States.
•
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires that any outboard
manufactured after January 1, 2009, must use low permeation fuel hose
for the primary fuel hose connecting the fuel tank to the outboard.
•
Low permeation hose is USCG Type B1‑15 or Type A1‑15, defined as not
exceeding 15 g/m²/24 h with CE 10 fuel at 23 °C as specified in SAE J
1527 ‑ marine fuel hose.

WARNING
Fuel is flammable and explosive. Ensure that the key switch is off and the
lanyard is positioned so that the engine cannot start. Do not smoke or allow
sources of spark or open flame in the area while servicing. Keep the work
area well ventilated and avoid prolonged exposure to vapors. Always check
for leaks before attempting to start the engine, and wipe up any spilled fuel
immediately.
