Fuel requirements
EMU36780
Gasoline
Use a good quality gasoline that meets the
minimum octane rating. If knocking or ping-
ing occurs, use a different brand of gasoline
or premium unleaded fuel. Yamaha re-
comends that you use alcohol-free (see
Gasohol) gasoline whenever possible.
NOTICE
ECM01980
●
Do not use leaded gasoline. Leaded
gasoline can seriously damage the en-
gine.
●
Avoid getting water and contaminants
in the fuel tank. Contaminated fuel can
cause poor performance or engine
damage. Use only fresh gasoline that
has been stored in clean containers.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol con-
taining ethanol (E10) and that containing
methanol. Ethanol can be used if the ethanol
content does not exceed 10% and the fuel
meets the minimum octane ratings. E85 is a
fuel containing 85% ethanol and must not be
used in your outboard motor. All ethanol
blends containing more than 10% ethanol
can cause fuel system damage or cause en-
gine starting and running problems. Yamaha
does not recommend gasohol containing
methanol because it can cause fuel system
damage or engine performance problems.
It is recommended that you install a water-
separating marine fuel filter assembly (10
micron minimum) between your boat’s fuel
tank and outboard motor when using etha-
nol. Ethanol is known to allow moisture to be
absorbed into boat fuel tanks and systems.
Moisture in the fuel can cause corrosion of
metallic fuel system components, starting
and running complaints and require addition-
al fuel system maintenance.

Ring Free Fuel Additive
Gasoline is a precise blend of many different
substances, each chosen to give certain
characteristics. Gasoline blends have been
changing in recent years in response to con-
cerns about pollution and resulting emis-
sions regulations. One of the most obvious
changes has been the elimination of lead
from most fuels.
As gasoline has changed, the amount of ad-
ditives such as aromatics and oxygenates
has increased. These additives are impor-
tant for the engines in passenger cars, but
they can have detrimental effects in marine
engines, because of increased deposits in
the combustion chamber. When enough de-
posits collect, piston rings begin sticking.
Performance drops and engine wear in-
creases dramatically.
While many additives available may reduce
deposits, Yamaha recommends the use of
Ring Free Fuel Additive , available from
your Yamaha dealer. Ring Free Fuel Addi-
tive has repeatedly proven its ability to clean
combustion deposits from inside the engine,
notably the critical piston-ring-land area, and
fuel system components. Follow product la-
beling for use instructions.
Recommended gasoline:
Regular unleaded gasoline with a min-
imum Octane rating of 86 (Pump Oc-
tane Number) = (R+M)/2
