STORAGE

DRAIN SCREW

Adding a Fuel Stabilizer

Draining the Fuel System

Distributor’s Limited Warranty

When adding a fuel stabilizer, fill the
fuel tank with fresh gasoline. If only
partially filled, air in the tank will
promote fuel deterioration during
storage. If you keep an additional
container of gasoline for refueling,
be sure that it contains only fresh
gasoline.

Add fuel stabilizer following the
manufacturer’s instructions.

After adding a fuel stabilizer, run
the engine in water for 10 minutes
to be sure that the treated gasoline
has replaced the untreated gasoline
in the carburetor.

Turn the engine OFF.

The
(p.

) does not cover fuel system

damage or engine performance
problems resulting from neglected
storage preparation.

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.

Disconnect the fuel hose from the
outboard motor.

You can avoid fuel deterioration
problems by draining the fuel tank
and carburetors.
