Fuel Fill Fitting

Note: Never pump fuel into any fitting, opening or access on the boat unless it is labeled
"Gas" or "Fuel".
The fuel fill fitting is labeled "Gas" or "Fuel" and is
located approximately amidships on the starboard
gunwale. The fuel vent is installed on the hull, just
below the fuel fill. Twist the cap to open the fitting.
The cap is connected to the fitting by a chain or cable
so that it will not fall into the water and/or get lost. Be
careful not to pump fuel into any other fitting on the
vessel. While you are filling the tank, fuel entering
the tank pushes air in the tank out through the fuel
vent.
Fuel Sender & Fuel Pick Up
The fuel sender and fuel pick up are accessible via the access pie that is installed forward of the bilge
hatch. 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 professional remove the fuel sender and
check to make sure that the float is able to move up and down freely. We recommend that you DO NOT
attempt to remove and/or replace the fuel sender yourself. This repair should be completed by a qualified
professional

Fuel Water Separator

Depending on your selection of the various optional engine packages, your boat may be equipped with a
fuel water separator for the 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 a fuel water separator, it will be mounted to a stringer or
bulkhead in the bilge. The "spin on" filter cartridge should be renewed every season at a minimum. Fuel
tanks that are not kept full accumulate water faster due to condensation. Therefore, the filter cartridge
