STORING OUTBOARD MOTOR

When storing your Yamaha outboard for
prolonged periods of time, (2 months or
longer), several important procedures
w
must be performed to prevent expensive
damage.
It is advisable to have your outboard ser-
viced by an authorized Yamaha dealer
prior to storage. However, the following
procedures can be performed by you, the
owner, with a minimum of tools.

Filling Fuel Tank
Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel and add
one ounce of "Yamaha fuel conditioner
and stabilizer" (Part No. LUB-FUELC-12-
00) to each gallon of fuel.
NOTE:
The use of Yamaha Fuel Conditioner and
Stabilizer eliminates the need to drain the
fuel system. Consult your Yamaha dealer
or other qualified mechanic if the fuel sys-
tem is to be drained instead.
