Question

What must be attached to each carburetor on a gasoline inboard engine?

Answer 1

To each carburetor on a gasoline inboard engine a backfire flame arrestor must be attached.This arrestor will prevent flames from the backfire causing a fire on board.  Several things are important in order the backfire arrestor to function properly: 
- should be clean and undamaged.
- If there is a hole in the grid, or oil or gasoline in the grid, or if it is not properly attached, the arrestor will not work correctly.
- must be approved by the U.S. Coast Guard
