Primer Bulb
There may be a primer bulb installed for each engine and it is used to prime the fuel pump in the motor with fuel.
Squeeze the primer bulb a few times until resistance is felt in order to prime. If no resistance develops and the
fuel pump will not prime, you may be out of fuel, the primer bulb may be defective, or a leak may have developed
allowing air into the system. Primer bulbs (if applicable) are located with the rigging tubes where they exit the
bilge and are easy to get to by standing on the dive platform.
Note: Not all engines require a primer bulb. Refer to the engine manual for verification.
Oil Tank and Oil Fill
Depending on your selection of the various optional engine packages (i.e., oil injected outboard engines), your
boat may be equipped with a remote oil tank. If your engine package requires the installation of an oil tank, it will
be mounted in the bilge and can be accessed via the bilge hatches in the motor well. The oil fill will be installed
port side of the transom.
Make sure that the oil tank is well stocked with the type of engine oil that is recommended for your engine. Refer
to your engine manual. It is imperative that the oil supply remains clean and uncontaminated by water or dirt.
Check to make sure the oil line is free from leaks, kinks and chafing. Some motors use a primer bulb to initiate oil
flow. Air may periodically enter the system and require purging. Refer to your engine manual for specific
instructions.
If your optional engine package requires the installation of a remote oil tank, please refer to the owner’s manual
provided by the engine manufacturer for operational procedures and for information related to the care and
maintenance of their product. When in doubt, always defer to the engine manufacturer’s instructions and/or
recommendations.
Fuel / Oil Leaks
The fuel tank is vented via the vented fuel fill fitting and the vent should be inspected for obstructions regularly.
Verify that all of the fuel hoses remain properly secured and located according to NMMA standards. Inspect all
hose clamps and fittings to ensure they are double clamped where needed and that there are no fuel leaks in any
of the hoses. Also, inspect the oil system, if applicable, and ensure that the oil tank and hoses remain properly
connected and secured.
If you notice a fuel odor or see fuel in the bilge, there may be a leak somewhere in the fuel system. Correct any
fuel leaks before operating the vessel.
Caution: If at all possible
, any fuel tank and or fuel system repair should be handled by your
Pro-Line dealer’s service department or by another qualified professional.
