Engine Oil Requirement; Engine Oil - Yamaha 212X 2016 Owner's/Operator's Manual

Operation and handling requirements
(5) Stop filling when the fuel just becomes
visible in the bottom of the filler tube. Do
not "top off" the tank, because gasoline
could spill out.
(6) Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
(7) Close the fuel tank filler cap by pushing it
until it locks in place. Make sure that the
fuel tank filler cap is securely closed.
Engine Med RX Fuel Additive
As the fuel mixture burns in your engine's
combustion chambers, carbon deposits are
left behind. Over time, these deposits can re-
duce performance and even cause engine
damage. Marine engines tend to run at lower
operating temperatures than other engines,
making them more likely to accumulate these
harmful deposits. Engine Med RX, available
from your Yamaha Boat Dealer, is formulated
to remove existing deposits and, when used
continuously, prevent new ones from forming,
while also helping to keep fuel injectors and
other fuel system components clean for prop-
er performance and longer engine life.
