FUEL FILLS
A fuel fill deck plate is located on each gunwale and is marked “GAS." The
fuel fill is opened by turning it counter clockwise with a special key. After
fueling, install the fuel cap and tighten with the key. Be sure to use the proper
type and grade fuel. Refer to the engine owner’s manual for additional
information.
DO NOT CONFUSE FUEL FILL DECK PLATES WITH THE
WATER OR WASTE FILL DECK PLATES. THESE PLATES ARE ALSO LABELED ACCORD-
INGLY. IF GASOLINE OR DIESEL IS ACCIDENTALLY PUMPED INTO THE WATER OR
WASTE TANK, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PUMP IT OUT YOURSELF. WATER AND WASTE
PUMPS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO PUMP FUEL AND FIRE OR EXPLOSION COULD RESULT.
HAVE THE FUEL PROFESSIONALLY REMOVED AND THE COMPONENTS OF THE FRESH
WATER SYSTEM REPLACED AS NECESSARY.
FUEL VENTS
There are two fuel vent fittings for the gasoline fuel tanks, one on each side of the hull. While the tank is being
filled, the air displaced by the fuel escapes through the vent. After fueling, replace the fill cap(s), and wash
the areas around the fuel fill plates and below the fuel vent(s). Residual fuel left on the deck and hull sides
can be dangerous, and will yellow the fiberglass or damage the striping.
3.2 Fuel System
The outboard fuel system on the Pursuit OS 335 has two fuel tanks and four manual “ON/OFF” fuel valves
that are labeled to indicate the engine the valve will supply. Refer to the Schematics section of this manual.
The fuel valves are located on the top of the fuel tanks and are accessed through the inspection plates in the
cockpit. The valves are off when the handle is perpendicular to the fuel flow. The fuel valves allow the
operator to run the engines from both tanks or from either the port tank, which fills from the port gunwale,
or the starboard tank, which fills from the starboard gunwale.
During normal operation, the port engine should be supplied fuel from the port tank and the starboard engine
supplied fuel from the starboard tank. The fuel valves on each tank are labeled port and starboard. The labels
refer to the engine the valve supplies. If a fuel supply problem should occur in one of the fuel tanks, both
engines can be temporarily operated from either the port or starboard fuel tank by opening both valves on that
tank. The fuel valves on the port tank should be off when operating both engines on the starboard tank and
the fuel valves on the starboard tank should be off when operating both engines on the port tank. Operating
the boat with all four fuel valves open is not recommended and should be avoided.
The engines will not draw fuel equally from the fuel tanks when the fuel valves are set so both engines are
operating from both tanks (all four 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.
