Taking Care of the Unexpected
If the engine cooling water temperature
reaches a certain level, engine revs are
automatically limited to 3,000 rpm to prevent
damage. If the temperature continues rising,
the engine will automatically shut off and
cannot be restarted until the temperature drops.
• Return to shore immediately and shut off
the engine. Allow it to cool.
• Check inside of the hull. If a large amount
of bilge water is found, check connection of
the water hoses in the cooling system.
• Inspect the jet pump water intake for
clogging.
• Inspect the impeller for clogging.
• Flush the cooling system (page 193).
