Fuel System
BEWARE of Your Fuel
The largest source of trouble with marine engines lies with the fuel and fuel system. Pay regular attention to both—from hoses and connections to proper filtration and fuel additives.
Inspect your fuel system before every trip: fuel hoses & primer bulbs, connections for leaks or cracks. Give everything the “sniff test.”
Fuel treatment isn’t just for extended storage. Today’s ethanol-blended gasoline begins to break down in a matter of weeks, not months. To prevent oxidation and phase separation in ethanol-enriched fuels (and potential engine damage that comes with that) treat every tank with Yamalube Fuel Stabilizer & Conditioner PLUS.
Buy your gas where they sell a lot of it. The goal is to keep your boat’s fuel fresh at all times. Buy the freshest fuel you can find and treat every tank.
Fuel treatment isn’t just about fuel, it’s about your engine. Protect your fuel system metals from sulfate salt corrosion and decarbonize your engine for maximum performance. Add Yamalube Ring Free PLUS at every fill up.
