Engines
Proper engine maintenance is essential to
performance and reliability of your outboard
engines. Maintenance schedules and proce-
dures are outlined in your engine owner's
manual, follow them exactly.
Flush the system when the boat is out of the
water. If the boat is used in saltwater, flush
daily.
The age of gasoline can affect engine per-
formance. Chemical changes occur as the
gasoline ages, causing deposits and varnish
in the fuel system and reduces the octane
rating of the fuel. Degraded fuel can damage
the engine and boat fuel tank and lines. If
your boat does not require at least one full
tank of fresh fuel a month, add a fuel stabi-
lizer to the gasoline to protect the fuel from
degradation. Use only a fuel stabilizer rec-
ommended by your dealer or the engine
manufacturer. Operate the boat at least 15
minutes after adding the stabilizer to allow
the treated fuel to reach the engine. Your
dealer or engine manufacturer can provide
additional information on fuel degradation.
For more recommendations for your specific
area, check with your local Pursuit dealer.
Avoid using fuels with alcohol additives.
Gasoline, extended with an alcohol blend,
will absorb moisture from the air which can
reach such concentrations that "phase sepa-
ration" can occur where the water and alco-
hol mixture becomes heavy enough to settle
out of the gasoline to the bottom of the tank.
Since the fuel pick-up tube is near the bot-
tom of the tank, phase separation can cause
the engine to run poorly or not at all. This
condition is more severe with methyl alcohol
and will worsen as the alcohol content
increases. Water or a jelly like substance in
the fuel filters is an indication of possible
phase separation from the use of alcohol
blended fuels.
Contact your Pursuit dealer or engine manu-
facturer for additional information regarding
fuels and additives.
Corian® Surfaces
Corian® is resistant to heat, but you should
always use a hot pad or a trivet with rubber
feet to protect Corian®. Avoid exposing
Corian® to strong chemicals, such as paint
removers, oven cleaners, etc. If contact
occurs, flush the surface with water immedi-
ately. Soapy water or ammonia-based clean-
ers will remove most dirt and stains from all
types of finishes.
DO NOT use the Corian® counter top as a
cutting board.
Minor damage, scratches, general or chemi-
cal stains, scorches or burns and minor
impact marks can be repaired on-site with a
light abrasive cleanser and a product such
as a Scotch-Brite® pad. For heavier dam-
age, light sanding may be necessary. Heavy
damage should be repaired by a Corian®
licensed professional.
Tempered Glass Sink
For best results:
• DO NOT use strong/abrasive cleaner.
Test your cleaning solution on an unno-
ticeable area first, before applying to the
entire surface.
• Wipe surfaces clean, immediately after
applying cleaner.
• DO NOT allow cleaner to sit or soak on
the surface.
• DO NOT use an abrasive brush or
scouring pad to clean surfaces as dam-
age will occur. Use only a soft, damp-
ened sponge and cloth.
• Rinse and wipe the fixtures to prevent
soap build-up.
