FUEL SYSTEM
OIL SYSTEM
IMPORTANT:  You  MUST  prime  the  oil  injection
system BEFORE you prime the fuel system. Refer
to Installing the Oil Supply Hose . If the fuel sys-
tem is primed first, see your DEALER. After this ini-
tial connection, the oiling system should NOT need
priming unless problems occur due to an air leak in
the oil line or an empty oil tank.
If the oil hoses are disconnected for any reason,
seal them to prevent spillage. Install caps on the oil
fittings to prevent contamination.
WARNING
If your motor is equipped with a quick-dis-
connect fuel hose, disconnect the fuel hose
from the motor and from the fuel tank when
the motor is  not being used for  a period of
time. Disconnecting the hose will avert fuel
leaks in the hose or at the engine.
You must use an oil tank equipped with a filter and
oil supply hose. The oil system must be purged if air
is in the oil supply hose. Refer to Installing the Oil
Supply Hose.
IMPORTANT: Fuel distribution hoses in the boat
must deliver fuel at the rate of flow needed by the
engine.  Minimum  inside  diameter  of  fuel   hoses
must be 5/16 in. (8 mm).
Fuel systems with built-in tanks, particularly those
that  include   antisiphon   valves  and   filter/primer
units, may have restrictions that will not allow the
engine fuel pump to deliver sufficient fuel under all
conditions. This can result in a loss of performance
and  possible  engine  damage.  If  a  performance
problem exists, see your DEALER.
To  avoid  difficulty  when  restarting, never  run the
engine with the fuel hose disconnected or run the
engine out of fuel.
Install the oil tank by following the instructions pro-
vided with the unit.
IMPORTANT: Consider the installation location of
the oil tank carefully. The oil tank is vented to the at-
mosphere. To avoid serious powerhead damage,
be sure the oil tank is installed in a location that
does not allow constant exposure to sunlight, rain,
bilge water or spray. Periodically inspect the oil tank
for evidence of water.
