The external fuel vent is located below the fuel fill on the
outside of the hull, and the gas tank is vented overboard. While
you are filling the tank, fuel entering the tank pushes air in the
tank out through the fuel vent.

Fuel Tank

The 240-gallon fuel tank is constructed of heavy gauge aluminum with internal baffling to minimize
sloshing. The fuel tank is located under the deck and is secured between the stringers and bulkheads.

Inspect all hose connections on a regular basis. You can the access other end of the fuel fill and fuel vent
hoses via the round access plate that is installed just below the fuel fill fitting on the starboard gunwale.
Fuel Sender & Fuel Pick Ups
The fuel sender and fuel pick-ups are accessible via the oval access pie installed at the forward edge of
the bilge opening
The fuel sender is equipped with a float that moves up and down with the fuel level in the tank. The fuel
level information is sent to the fuel gauge and keeps you informed of the approximate fuel level in the
tank. If you feel that your fuel gauge is reading incorrectly, before considering changing the gauge, have
your Pro-Line dealer's Service Department or a qualified service professional remove the fuel sender and
check to make sure that the float is able to move up and down freely.

Fuel Water Separators

Depending on your selection of the various optional engine packages, your boat may be equipped with a
fuel water separator for each engine. However, some engines come equipped with a built in fuel water
separator. Please refer to the owner's manual provided by the manufacturer of your engine package for
operational procedures and for information related to the care and maintenance of their product. When in
doubt, always defer to the engine manufacturer's instructions and/or recommendations.
If your engine package requires the installation of fuel water separators, they will be mounted on one of
the stringers or bulkheads in the bilge. There is one unit for each motor. The "spin on" filter cartridges
should be renewed every season at a minimum. Fuel tanks that are not kept full accumulate water faster
due to condensation. Therefore, the filter cartridges may need to be replaced more often depending upon
usage and conditions or if motors begin to run rough. When replacing the filter cartridges for the fuel
water separators, coat the rubber seal with a film of grease or oil to help prevent sticking.
