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

VALVES BECOME CLOGGED, CLEAN AND REINSTALL OR REPLACE.

Fuel filters are installed in the transom area of the boat. The filters are the

water separator type and there is one filter for each engine fuel line. Each

fuel filter has a sediment bowl that should be checked for water frequently

to assure an adequate supply of clean, dry fuel to the engines. It is

recommended that the filters are inspected periodically and the elements

changed as needed. See Fuel System Maintenance for additional infor-

mation on the fuel filter.

Note: Some fuel injected engines have fuel filters on the engine and

do not allow external fuel filters. If your boat is equipped with

fuel injected engine(s), it may not have a separate water

separator fuel filter.

3.3 Fueling Instructions

FUEL IS VERY FLAMMABLE. BE CAREFUL WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANKS. NO

SMOKING. NEVER FILL THE TANKS WHILE THE ENGINES ARE RUNNING. FILL THE

FUEL TANKS IN AN OPEN AREA. DO NOT FILL THE TANKS NEAR OPEN FLAMES.

TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE FUEL SYSTEM, USE ONLY A GOOD GRADE OF GASO-

LINE FOR OUTBOARD ENGINES. DO NOT USE A FUEL THAT CONTAINS HARSH ADDI-

TIVES OR IS AN ALCOHOL BLEND. ANY DAMAGE DONE TO THE FUEL SYSTEM THAT

IS THE RESULT OF USE OF AN ALCOHOL BLEND, IS NOT COVERED BY THE PURSUIT

WARRANTY. REFER TO THE ENGINE MANUFACTURER OWNER’S MANUAL FOR THE

FUEL REQUIREMENTS FOR YOUR ENGINES.

To fill the fuel tank at a marina, follow this procedure:

1. Make sure all switches are in the “Off” position.

2. Make sure the boat is securely moored.

3. Make sure all passengers leave the boat.

4. Estimate how much fuel is needed and avoid over filling the tank.

Note: When the fuel tank is full, fuel will come out through the fuel vent. The fuel vents

are located on each side of the boat.
