IIf the engine is not to be used for an
extended period of time, special measures
should be taken to protect the coolant
system, fuel system and combustion
chamber from corrosion and the exterior
from rusting.
The engine can normally stand idle for up
to six months. If it remains unused for
longer than this, please contact your
authorized Yanmar marine dealer or
distributor.

fuel tank during winter storage, fill the tank
with fuel and treat with diesel fuel
stabilizer.
