Anti-Fouling Paint; Outboard Motor Disposal Requirements; Emergency Equipment; Emission Control Information - Yamaha F225F Owner's Manual

blends containing more than 10% ethanol
can cause fuel system damage or cause en-
gine starting and running problems. Yamaha
does not recommend gasohol containing
methanol because it can cause fuel system
damage or engine performance problems.
It is recommended that you install a water-
separating marine fuel filter assembly (10 mi-
cron minimum) between your boat's fuel tank
and outboard motor when using ethanol.
Ethanol is known to allow moisture to be ab-
sorbed into boat fuel tanks and systems.
Moisture in the fuel can cause corrosion of
metallic fuel system components, starting
and running complaints and require addition-
al fuel system maintenance.

Anti-fouling paint

A clean hull improves boat performance. The
boat bottom should be kept as clean of ma-
rine growth as possible. If necessary, the
boat bottom can be coated with an anti-foul-
ing paint approved for your area to inhibit
marine growth.
Do not use anti-fouling paint which includes
copper or graphite. These paints can cause
more rapid engine corrosion.
