Cooling water pilot outlets

This watercraft is equipped with cooling water
pilot outlets.
Features and functions
When the engine is running, cooling water is
circulated in the engine, and then it is dis-
charged from the pilot outlets.
To check for proper operation of the cooling
system, check that water is being discharged
from the port (left) pilot outlet. If water is not
being discharged from this outlet, cooling wa-
ter may not be circulating in the engine. When
this occurs, stop the engine and check for the
cause. (See pages 42 and 91 for more infor-
mation.)
NOTE:
If the cooling water passages are dry, it will
G
take about 60 seconds for the water to
reach the outlet after the engine is started.
Water discharge may not be constant at
G
idle, therefore, open the throttle a little to
check that water discharges properly.
Water discharge may not be constant at the
G
starboard (right) pilot outlet, however, if it is
constant at the port (left) pilot outlet, the
cooling system is operating normally.
