CAUTION:
Use only fresh gasoline that has been
stored in clean containers.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol
containing ethanol and that containing meth-
anol.
Gasohol containing ethanol can be used
if ethanol content does not exceed 10 % and
the fuel meets minimum octane ratings.
Gasohol containing methanol is not rec-
ommended by Yamaha because it can
cause fuel system damage or engine perfor-
mance problems.Recommended gasoline:
Regular unleaded gasoline with
a minimum octane rating of
86 (Pump octane number) = (R+M)/2
90 (Research octane number)

Inspecting the fuel system
WARNING
Gasoline and its vapors are highly flam-
mable and explosive.
Check the fuel system for leaks, cracks,
or malfunctions. If any problem is found, do
the necessary repair or replacement as
required. If repair is necessary, consult a
Yamaha dealer.
Check:
●Carburetor for leakage.
●Fuel pump for malfunction or leakage.
●Fuel tank for water or dirt.
●Fuel tank for damage, cracks or leakage.
●Fuel hose joint for leakage.
●Fuel hose for cracks or other damage.
●Fuel filter for leakage.
●Fuel cock for leakage.
●Air vent check valve for leakage.
●Fuel tank filler cap for damage.
WARNING
Failure to check for and repair any fuel
leakage may result in fire or explosion.
