Boating Safety & Information - Section A

2. Carburetors/Injectors

a. Dirty or clogged flame arrester

b. Malfunctioning automatic choke plate or faulty

adjustment of manual choke plate

c. Worn float needle valve and seat

d. High float level

e. Incorrect idle mixture adjustment

f. Dirty or worn injectors

3. Ignition System

a. Fouled or worn spark plug.

b. Worn points or incorrect gap on points

c. Shorted or opened circuit high tension spark

plug cables

d. Incorrect ignition timing.

4. General

a. Worn piston rings and valves

b. Engine temperature - Cold running en gines

increase CO production. Engine cooling water

system design and selection of thermostat(s)

are primary consider ati ons affecting engine

operating tempera ture. Generally, an engine

produces less CO if it operates at a rela-

tively high tem perature within manufacturer’s

specifica tions.

c. Exhaust Back-Pressure - Certain alter ati ons

to the exhaust system may in crease engine

exhaust back pressure and CO production.

d. Restricted engine room or compartment

ventilation

S. Maintenance - External Conditions

External conditions that contribute to inefficient engine

performance can include:

1. Fouled hull bottom

2. Damaged and fouled jet nozzle(s)

T. Maintenance - Exhaust System Integrity

Gas tight integrity of exhaust systems must be main-

tained to insure that leakage of CO within the boat

does not occur. Disassembly may be required

to carry out a thorough inspection. Repair or replace

components as indicated. Inspect the following:

1. Gaskets at cylinder head connection

2. Casting and pipe fittings in the dry section

3. All joints

4. Hoses

5. Clamps

6. Mufflers and their drain plugs

7. Thru-hull fittings

8. Hangers and other supports

U. Maintenance - Ventilation Systems

Boats are equipped with ventilation systems to elimi-

nate gasoline vapors. Blowers and fans may also be

provided for ventilation and to mitigate the migration of

CO into occupied compartments. Attention should be

paid to the following:

1. Keeping ventilation intakes clear of debris

2. Replacing damaged hardware

3. Maintaining the integrity of the duct material and

its connections

4. Ensuring that position of duct intakes are not

obstructed or restricted, collapsed, kinked,

or crushed

5. Eliminating sags in ducts that can form a water

trap

6. Checking hangers and other supports

7. Ensuring blower/fan is operational

8. Ensuring that airflow is present at discharge

9. Inspecting wiring to equipment
