FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM
CAUTION: Failure to change the fuel system filter as recommended
can result in premature failure of fuel injection system components.
WARNING: Use extreme care when changing the fuel filter. Gasoline is
highly flammable and under pressure. It should not be exposed to open
flame, sparks, or hot engine components. Allow the engine to cool to
ambient temperature prior to changing fuel filters.
WARNING: Fuel is under HIGH pressure. Consult equipment service
dealer before servicing fuel system.
WARNING: The bilge can accumulate explosive fumes. The bilge
blower will evacuate the fumes. The bilge blower must be run for a minimum
of 10 minutes prior to cranking the engine.
Fuel Filter
A fuel/water separator filter is used in the fuel supply line to the engine. This helps
prevent contaminates from plugging the fuel injectors. The fuel filter is located in
the supply line between the fuel tank, fuel pump and the engine. This filter protects
the fuel injectors from debris in the fuel tank. This filter must be changed every 500
hours or every 6 months which ever occurs first.
Fuel Recommendation
WARNING: Use extreme care when changing the fuel filter. Gasoline is
highly flammable and under pressure. It should not be exposed to open
flame, sparks, or hot engine components. Allow the engine to cool to
ambient temperature prior to changing fuel filters.
