wThe exhaust system is hot after
operation. Make sure that the
exhaust system has cooled down
before doing any maintenance
work.
Your Yamaha engine has been
designed to use regular unleaded
gasoline with a research octane num-
ber of 91 or higher. If knocking (or
pinging) occurs, use a gasoline of a
different brand or premium unleaded
fuel. Use of unleaded fuel will extend
spark plug life and reduce mainte-
nance costs. Recommended fuel:
