Fuel Filters
•
The fuel pickup tube, located inside the fuel tank, is equipped with a fine mesh screen filter.
•
In addition, 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.
•
If an engine running problem is diagnosed as fuel starvation, check the anti-siphon valve.
•
If the valve is stuck or clogged, change or replace it while the engine is shut down.
•
NEVER run the engine with the anti-siphon valve removed, except in an emergency.
