Recommended fuel:
REGULAR UNLEADED GASOLINE
ONLY
Fuel tank capacity:
12.5 L (3.30 US gal) (2.75 Imp.gal)
Fuel reserve amount (when the fuel
level warning symbol comes on):
2 L (0.53 US gal) (0.44 Imp.gal)
CAUTION:
Use only unleaded gasoline. The
use of leaded gasoline will cause
severe damage to internal engine
parts, such as the valves and piston
rings, as well as to the exhaust sys-
tem.
Your Yamaha engine has been desig-
ned to use regular unleaded gasoline
with a research octane number of 91
ECA10070 or higher. If knocking (or pinging)
occurs, use a gasoline of a different
brand or premium unleaded fuel. Use
of unleaded fuel will extend spark
plug life and reduce maintenance
costs.
