Fuel Filter

Note: Do not overtighten the fuel cap. If the cap is overtightened, the O-ring seal could be

damaged allowing water to contaminate the fuel system.

DO NOT CONFUSE FUEL FILL DECK PLATES WITH THE WATER OR WASTE FILL

DECK PLATES. THESE PLATES ARE ALSO LABELED ACCORDINGLY. IF GASO-

LINE IS ACCIDENTALLY PUMPED INTO THE WATER OR WASTE TANK, DO NOT

ATTEMPT TO PUMP IT OUT YOURSELF. WATER AND WASTE PUMPS ARE NOT

DESIGNED TO PUMP FUEL AND A FIRE OR EXPLOSION COULD RESULT. CON-

TACT YOUR DEALER OR THE PURSUIT CUSTOMER RELATIONS DEPARTMENT

FOR ASSISTANCE IN HAVING THE FUEL PROFESSIONALLY REMOVED.

Fuel Vent

The fuel vent is located on the side of the hull. While the tank is being filled, the air displaced

by the fuel escapes through the vent.

After fueling, replace the fill cap and wash the areas around the fuel fill deck plate and below the

fuel vent. Residual fuel left on the deck and hull sides can be dangerous and will yellow the

fiberglass or damage the striping.

3.2 Outboard Fuel System

The fuel system on the Pursuit 2470 Center Console has one fuel

tank. The fuel tank is mounted in the center of the bilge and has one

or two withdrawal lines equipped with anti-siphon valves where the

fuel lines attach to the fuel tank. This valve prevents gasoline from

siphoning out of the fuel tank should a line rupture.

DO NOT REMOVE THE ANTI-SIPHON VALVES FROM THE SYSTEM. SHOULD AN

ANTI-SIPHON VALVE BECOME CLOGGED, CLEAN AND REINSTALL OR REPLACE.

IF A FUEL LINE SHOULD LEAK, ANTI-SIPHON VALVES PREVENT A SUBSTAN-

TIAL AMOUNT OF FUEL FROM FLOWING INTO THE BILGE. ANTI-SIPHON

VALVES ARE REQUIRED, BY THE U.S. COAST GUARD, TO BE INSTALLED IN ALL

BOATS EQUIPPED WITH GASOLINE ENGINES.
