Fuel Fill & Vent

• The fuel fill deck fitting is marked GAS.

• If you have problems filling the fuel tank, see if the fuel fill hose or fuel tank vent hose is kinked or collapsed.

• If there are no visible signs of a problem, contact your local dealer.

Fuel Filters

• The fuel pickup tube, located inside the fuel tank, is equipped with a fine mesh screen filter.

• Also, when supplied by the engine manufacturer, a fuel filter is installed on the engine.

• Periodically replace the fuel filters to make sure they remain clean and free of debris.

• Talk to your selling dealer or local marina about fuel additives that help prevent fungus or other buildup in your

fuel tank.

Anti-siphon Valve

• The anti-siphon valve is a vital fuel system part.

• If the fuel line ruptures, this valve will prevent the fuel from siphoning from the tank.

• The valve is located on the fuel tank, where the fuel feed line attaches to the tank.

• The valve is spring loaded and is opened by fuel pump vacuum.
