FUEL

Fuel Requirements

Refer to your outboard operator's manual for fuel
requirements.
Marker One fuel systems are designed to meet all
current ABYC and NMMA regulations using
gasoline with up to 10% ethanol.
A
WARNING
DO NOT use fuels containing methanol
(methyl alcohol) or other fuels with more
than 10% ethanol (ethyl alcohol) content
such as E85, which contains 85%
ethanol.
Fuel that contains more than 10% ethanol voids all
warranties and will increase the risk of damage to
the engine, fuel system components and will also
lead to the following:
• Corrosion of metal parts
• Deterioration of plastic, rubber parts or
permeation of fuel through rubber fuel lines
• Leaking fuel resulting in explosion and/or fire
• Starting and operating difficulties
• Potential damage to your engine

Fueling

Take care not to spill gasoline. If gasoline is
accidentally spilled, wipe up all traces of it with dry
rags and immediately dispose of the rags properly
ashore. Spilled fuel may yellow the gelcoat finish
and damage gunwale trim.
PLATFORM SERIES
Avoid injury, fire or explosion. Take all
precautions every time you fuel your
boat, regardless of the fuel type. Certain
fuel is extremely flammable and highly
explosive under certain conditions.
Fumes from rags can collect in bilge and
be extremely hazardous. DO NOT store
rags used to wipe up fuel or solvent
spills in the boat. Dispose of rags
properly ashore.
Avoid injury, fire or explosion. Fuels are
extremely flammable and highly
explosive under certain conditions.
• Stop the outboard.
• DO NOT smoke or allow open flames
or sparks within 50 ft (15 m) of the

compartments which are not
designated for fuel storage.

and dispose of rags properly ashore.
