Post-launch checks

Perform the post-launch checks in the pre-op-
eration checklist while the boat is in the water
and the engine is running.

mation on starting the engine.)

Cooling water pilot outlet check

Check that water comes out from the pilot out-
let while the engine is running in the water. If
water is not circulating, something may be
clogging the intake grate. Refer to "Jet pump
clean-out procedure" on page 120.

TIP:
It may take up to 20 seconds for water to
reach the pilot outlet when first launching the
boat. The amount and force of the exiting wa-
ter will vary with engine speed.
NOTICE
A continuous flow of water from the pilot
outlet shows that water is flowing through
the engine cooling water passages. If wa-
ter is not flowing out of the pilot outlet dur-
ing operation, do not continue to run the
engine. Overheating and serious damage
could occur. See "Engine overheat warn-
ing system" on page 42 for more informa-
tion.
