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.
