a.
Fuel Tank is located on the centerline of the boat between the battery compartments and slightly forward
of the engines. The tank is provided with a vent that vents fumes to the atmosphere and a filler cap for
filling the tank. The filler cap has a dipstick for determining the exact amount of fuel in the tank. The tank
is designed to prevent an explosion if penetrated by a bullet.
b.
Isolating Valve is located at the bottom of the tank and is used to isolate the fuel tank from both engines.
c.
Shutoff Valve is located near the top of the fuel tank and is used to isolate the engine from the fuel tank.
d.
Fuel Water Separator is located near the top of the fuel tank and is used to remove water and coarse
particles from the fuel. Fuel is supplied from the fuel tank to the fuel water separator through nylon lines.
e.
Fuel Tank Vent is located next to the filler cap on the tank and extends over to the port side of the boat.
f.
Feed and Return Lines are hoses that connect the engines to the fuel tank. The feed line supplies fuel
to the engine. The return line returns excess fuel back to the tank.
g.
Fuel Lift Pump is located on the left side of the engine. The fuel lift pump supplies fuel to the injection
pump during start-up and operation.
h.
Fuel Lubricity Filter for the port engine is located port side mounted to the boat. The filter for the
starboard engine is located starboard side mounted on the boat. These filters remove particles from the
fuel that could clog the injection pump or the injectors and add lubricity to fuel when using JP8 fuel.
i.
Fuel Filters are located on the left side of the engine near the fuel lift pump. These filters remove
particles from the fuel that could clog the injection pump or the injectors.
j.
Injectors inject fuel into the engine cylinders.
k.
Injection Pump is located on the left forward side of the engine. It delivers an accurately measured
quantity of diesel fuel, under pressure, to the injector through which the fuel is injected into the engine
cylinder.
