Fuel Treatment During Storage
If the boat will not be used for two months or longer,
the boat and engine must be prepared for this storage
period.
Both the fuel in the tank(s) and the engine must be
treated with a fuel treatment (stabilizer) that counters
the negative effects of ethanol-blended fuels.
Use Volvo Penta Ethanol Fuel Treatment
(2)
, part num-
ber 22203959 to treat the fuel in the tank(s). Add the
treatment according to the instructions on the label.
During storage the engine’s internal components must
be protected from corrosion and any gasoline in the
engine’s fuel system must be treated. This is done by
mixing fuel treatment and two-cycle motor oil in gaso-
line that is run through the engine. The oil in the mixture
coats the inside of the engine and components with a
light protective film.
See the
Fuel Storage Mixture
procedure below.
