13. STORAGE
For longer service life of the outboard
motor, have your outboard motor
serviced by your outboard motor
dealer before storage. However, the
following procedures can be
performed by you, the owner, with a
minimum of tools.
Fuel
Gasoline spoils very quickly
depending on factors such as light
exposure, temperature and time.
In worst cases, gasoline can be
contaminated within 30 days.
Using contaminated gasoline can
seriously damage the engine (fuel
system clogged, valve stuck).
Such damage due to spoiled fuel is
disallowed from coverage by the
warranty.
To avoid this please strictly follow
these recommendations:
• Only use specified gasoline (see
page 53).
• Use fresh and clean gasoline.
• To slow deterioration, keep
gasoline in a certified fuel
container.
• If long storage (more than 30 days)
is foreseen, drain fuel tank and
vapor separator.
Gasoline is extremely flammable,
and gasoline vapor can explode,
causing serious injury or death. Do
not smoke or allow flames or
sparks in your working area.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF
CHILDREN.
• Be careful not to spill fuel.
Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may
ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make
sure the area is dry
before storing or transporting
the outboard motor.
• Do not smoke or allow flames or
sparks where fuel is drained or
stored.
1. Check the fuel filter on the low
pressure side. If there is water or
any contamination inside, clean the
fuel strainer or change the fuel
filter. (see page 120)
2. Drain the gasoline from the vapor
separator. (see page 131)
3. Check that there is no water or any
contamination mixed with the
extracted gasoline.
4. If there is nothing mixed with the
extracted gasoline, tighten the drain
screw.
