Additives; Fuel System - Evinrude 100 Operator's Manual

ADDITIVES

IMPORTANT: The only fuel additives approved by
Bombardier for use in your Evinrude outboard are
2+4 ® fuel conditioner and Evinrude Fuel System
Cleaner. Use of other fuel additives can result in
poor performance or engine damage.
Evinrude 2+4 fuel conditioner will help prevent
gum and varnish deposits from forming in fuel sys-
tem components and will remove moisture from the
fuel system. It can be used continuously and should
be used during any period when your engine isn't
being operated on a regular basis. Its use will re-
duce spark plug fouling, fuel system icing and fuel
system component deterioration.
Evinrude Fuel System Cleaner will help keep fuel
injectors in optimal operating condition.

FUEL SYSTEM

Connecting the Fuel Hose
WARNING
The outboard must be correctly installed.
Failure to correctly install the outboard
could result in property damage, serious
injury or death. We strongly recommend
your DEALER install your outboard to
ensure proper installation.
If the fuel hose is disconnected for any reason, seal
it to prevent spillage. Cap the fuel fitting to prevent
contamination.
Connect the fuel hose to the 3/8 in. (9 mm) fuel fit-
ting. Fasten hose securely with clamp (18,5 mm)
from owner's kit.
1. Fuel hose and fuel fitting - 3/8 in. (9 mm)
2. Oil supply fitting - 1/4 in. (6 mm) - Yellow stripe
3. Oil return fitting - 5/16 in. (8 mm) - Blue stripe

- Fuel and Oil
Prime the fuel system by holding the fuel primer
bulb with its outlet end up and squeezing it until
firm.
IMPORTANT: Fuel distribution hoses in the boat
must deliver fuel at the rate of flow needed by the
engine. Minimum inside diameter of fuel hoses
must be 3/8 in. (9 mm).
Fuel systems with built-in tanks, particularly those
that include antisiphon valves and filter/primer
units, may have restrictions that will not allow the
engine fuel pump to deliver sufficient fuel under all
conditions. This can result in a loss of performance
and possible engine damage. If a performance
problem exists, see your DEALER.
To avoid difficulty when restarting, never run the
engine with the fuel hose disconnected or run the
engine out of fuel.
