Boat Maintenance
Section 6
Fuel System
Your boat is normally equipped with two portable gas-
oline tanks that require little maintenance. You should
visually inspect the fuel tanks and all associated hoses
and fittings for leaks or deterioration before each mis-
sion. If you suspect a leak, you should have your boat
serviced immediately by an experienced marine tech-
nician.
Your boat might be equipped with one Racor
®
320R-
RAC-01 gasoline fuel filter. This filter features a
water-separating 10-micron filter element, a replace-
able spin-on canister, and a clear bowl to help detect
water in your fuel.
Your inspection and servicing routine is directly related
to the quality and quantity of gasoline that you take on-
board. You should check the sight bowl for evidence
of moisture before and after every mission.
Replace the filter element on this schedule, whichever
happens first:
• Every 100 operating hours
• Annually
• Noticeable engine performance loss
!
WARNING
Do not allow any liquid gasoline to enter the
boat or accumulate in the bilge. Liquid gasoline
is a fire and explosion hazard. Gasoline vapor
is extremely flammable and highly explosive
under certain conditions.
!
WARNING
Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations
exactly when servicing this gasoline filter to
avoid engine damage or fuel leaks. Refer to the
manufacturer’s instruction booklet in your
owner’s bag for detailed information about
these service procedures.
