Distributor’s Limited WarrantyThe

does not cover fuel system damage

or engine performance problems

resulting from neglected storage

preparation.

Gasoline will oxidize and deteriorate

in storage. Old gasoline will cause

hard starting, and it leaves gum

deposits that clog the fuel system. If

the gasoline in your fuel tank and

vapor separator deteriorates during

storage, you may need to have the

vapor separator and other fuel system

components serviced or replaced.

The length of time that gasoline can

be left in your fuel tank and vapor

separator without causing functional

problems will vary with such factors

as gasoline blend, your storage

temperatures, and whether the fuel

tank is partially or completely filled.

The air in a partially filled fuel tank

promotes fuel deterioration. Very

warm storage temperatures accelerate

fuel deterioration. Fuel deterioration

problems may occur within a few

months, or even less if the gasoline

was not fresh when you filled the

fuel tank.

You can avoid fuel deterioration

problems by draining the fuel tank

and vapor separator.

Connect the drain hose to the drain

joint of the vapor separator and set

the other end of the hose toward

the outside of the engine undercase.

Remove the drain hose from the

silencer case.

Tilt up the outboard motor.
