C. FUEL SENDER(S)
Due to the mechanical nature of the fuel sender, variations in readings
during various speeds of operation may occur. This system is merely a
relative indication of the available fuel supply and not a calibrated
instrument. With this type of sending unit a more accurate measurement
of fuel level is obtained with the boat in a level position.
D. FUEL VALVE(S)
A fuel hose connects the fuel tank to the engine. On models with more
than one tank, a switch valve is installed to switch from tank to tank. This
valve, located at the driver seat, on the panel to the right of the driver, is
clearly marked and easily operated. Some models have a manual fuel
shut-off valve located at the fuel pickup tube on the fuel tank. This is used
in case of a break in the fuel hose running to the engine.
Contact your Ranger dealer for information on proper fuel shutoff valve

is included in the owner's information packet.

on additives (especially alcohol). If alcohol content is not posted, ask and
avoid using fuel containing alcohol if possible.
Although alcohol boosts the octane level in gasoline, it also attacks the
