Be sure to use the proper type and grade fuel. Refer to the
engine owner’s manual for additional information.
Note:
Do not overtighten the fuel cap. If the cap is over-
tightened, the O-ring seal could be damaged al-
lowing water to contaminate the fuel system.
DO NOT CONFUSE FUEL FILL DECK PLATE WITH
THE WATER OR WASTE FILL DECK PLATES. THESE
PLATES ARE ALSO LABELED ACCORDINGLY. IF
GASOLINE 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 A
FIRE OR EXPLOSION COULD RESULT. CONTACT
YOUR DEALER OR THE SCOUT CUSTOMER
SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR ASSISTANCE IN
HAVING THE FUEL PROFESSIONALLY REMOVED.
Fuel Vent
There is a fuel vent fitting on the port side of the hull on the
Dorado. The fuel vent for the Sportfish and Abaco is built
into the fuel fill assembly.
While the tank is being filled, the air displaced by the fuel
escapes through the vent. When the tank is full, fuel will be
ejected from the fuel vent.
After fueling, replace the fill cap, and wash the areas around
the fuel fill plate and below the fuel vent. Residual fuel left
on the deck and hull sides can be dangerous, and will yellow
the fiberglass or damage the striping.
3.2
Outboard Fuel System
The fuel system on the Scout has one fuel tank. The Fuel
withdrawal line is equipped with an anti-siphon valve where
the line attaches to the fuel tank. This valve prevents gaso-
line from siphoning out of the fuel tank should a line rupture.
DO NOT REMOVE THE ANTI-SIPHON VALVE FROM
THE SYSTEM. SHOULD THE VALVE BECOME
CLOGGED, CLEAN AND REINSTALL OR REPLACE.
The fuel filter is installed in the stern bilge of the boat. It is
accessed through the center stern hatch. The filter is the wa-
ter separator type and should be serviced frequently to assure
an adequate supply of clean, dry fuel to the engine. It is
recommended that the filter is inspected periodically and the
element changed as needed.
There is a primer bulb in the fuel line located near the fuel
filter that is used to prime the fuel system after service or as
required. See Fuel System Maintenance and the engine
owner’s manual for additional information on the fuel filter
and the outboard engine fuel system.

FUEL IS VERY FLAMMABLE. BE CAREFUL WHEN
FILLING THE FUEL TANK. NO SMOKING. NEVER
FILL THE TANK WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING.
FILL THE FUEL TANK IN AN OPEN AREA. DO NOT
FILL THE TANK NEAR OPEN FLAMES.
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE FUEL SYSTEM, USE
ONLY A GOOD GRADE OF GASOLINE. DO NOT USE
A FUEL THAT CONTAINS HARSH ADDITIVES OR IS
AN ALCOHOL BLEND. ANY DAMAGE DONE TO THE
FUEL SYSTEM THAT IS THE RESULT OF USE OF AN
ALCOHOL BLEND, IS NOT COVERED BY THE SCOUT
WARRANTY. REFER TO THE ENGINE
