STORAGE
DRAIN SCREW
Draining the Fuel System
Distributor’s Limited Warranty
Drain the portable fuel tank into an
approved gasoline container, or if
you need to store fuel in the fuel
tank, you can extend fuel storage
life by filling the fuel tank with
fresh gasoline and adding a fuel
stabilizer that is formulated for
that purpose. Firmly close the fuel
cap vent knob.
After the fuel has drained from the
carburetor, tighten the drain screw
securely. With the outboard motor in a
vertical position, place an
approved gasoline container below
the fuel drain outlet, and use a
funnel to avoid spilling fuel.
Loosen the drain screw to drain
fuel from the carburetor. The
does not cover fuel system damage
or engine performance problems
resulting from neglected storage
preparation.
You can avoid fuel deterioration
problems by draining the fuel tank
and carburetors.
Disconnect the fuel hose from the
outboard motor.
