SIPHON VALVE BECOME CLOGGED, CLEAN AND REINSTALL OR REPLACE.
Single Engine Fuel System
The single engine fuel system on the Denali 28 has
two fuel tanks and two manual fuel valves. There is
one “ON/OFF” valve for each fuel line on each
tank. The fuel valves are located on the top of the
fuel tanks below the inspection plates in the rear of
the cockpit. The valves are off when the handle is
perpendicular to the fuel flow. The fuel valves
allow the operator to run the engine from both tanks
or from either the forward tank, which fills from the
starboard gunnel, or the rear tank, which fills from
the port gunnel.
During normal operation, the engines should be
supplied fuel from the rear tank first, then switched
to the forward tank It is important to switch the tanks
during every trip to consume fuel from both tanks
and avoid the possibility of developing stale fuel in
one of the tanks.
If a fuel supply problem should occur in one of the fuel tanks, the engine can be switched to the
other tank by opening the fuel valve on that tank and closing the valve on the tank with the problem.
The fuel valve on the forward tank should be off when operating the engine on the rear tank and
the fuel valve on the rear tank should be off when operating the engine on the forward tank.
Operating the boat with both fuel valves open is not recommended and should be avoided.
Note: The engine will not draw fuel equally from the fuel tanks when the fuel valves are set
so the engine is operating from both tanks (both fuel valves open). This could result
in one tank being exhausted of fuel while the other tank is partially full, causing fuel
supply problems.
Fuel withdrawal lines are equipped with anti-siphon valves where the lines attach to the fuel tanks.
These valves prevent gasoline from siphoning out of the fuel tank should a line rupture.
