Installation Guidelines:

  • When drilling fiberglass, always wear safety glasses
  • It is also advisable to wear a dust mask to avoid inhaling any fiberglass dust
  • For maximum effectiveness, your Fire Port(s) should be positioned as close to your carburetor as possible
  • Drill a single 2" diameter hole in your engine box
  • Before drilling, mask the area with tape to reduce gelcoat chipping
  • Position Fire Port and mark screw hole positions
  • Marine East recommends starting screw holes with a small diameter drill bit in order to avoid gelcoat cracking
  • Bed the Fire Port with a marine-grade compound and screw into position using (4) stainless steel screws (screws not included)
