Fuel-water Separators 

 

Fuel-Water Separator 

A  Yamaha  Fuel  -  Water  Separator  is  installed 

starboard side of the bilge area on the 301. The 

new,  improved  10-micron  filter  provides  superior 

filtration ahead of the engine's onboard filters and 

injectors.  Large  filtering  and  water  capture  areas 

maximize filtration while maintaining adequate flow 

rate for larger engines. 

 

The fuel separator can be checked by removing it 

from the mounting bracket and dumping it into 

an  approved  waste  collection  device.  If  there 

appears  to  be  an  excessive  amount  of  water,  the 

filter  component  should  be  replaced.  See  your 

authorized Cobia Dealer for replacement parts. 

 

The micron filter and head are pictured to the right. 

It is mounted inside an access panel located aft of 

the port transom gate. The fuel system primer bulb 

is located next to the filter.

 

Maintenance Note 

Yamaha  recommends  replacing  the  10-  micron  fuel  filter  on  new  boats  after  the  first  10  hours  or  1  month  of 

operation and every 50 hours or every 6 months thereafter. 

In areas of high humidity where water in fuel supplies is a 

problem or extensive engine operation occurs, more frequent replacement may be necessary. 

 

Garboard Drain Plug 

The garboard drain plug is the small metal plug located at 

the lowest point on the hull, at the bottom of the transom 

right above the keel. The drain has been designed to so 

that it can be loosened by hand while the hull is out of the 

water for draining. This allows the plug to stay in contact 

with  the  surrounding  frame  so  you’ll  never  misplace  or 

lose  it.  You  can  completely  remove  the  insert  by  pulling 

back and continue turning in a counter clockwise motion. 

It  is  manufactured  with  a  rubber  seal  in  place  to  ensure 

your bilge is watertight. Always make sure before putting 

the  boat  in  the  water  that  this  plug  is  hand  tightened 

firmly. Excess water in the bilge may be an indication of a 

problem with this plug or the automatic bilge pump. Refer 

to page 10

 

of this Owner’s Manual for information on your 

boats bilge system.
