If the engine overheats, the overheat
indicator will come on, and the
engine will stop in 20 seconds after
the engine protection system limits
engine speed. If you are at cruising
speed, engine speed will decrease
automatically.
All types are equipped with a buzzer
that sounds when the overheat
indicator comes on.
Engine overheating may be the result
of clogged water intake screens, or
there may be a problem with the
cooling system thermostat or water
pump.
If the engine is stopped after running
at full throttle, and then restarted
soon afterward, that could activate
the engine protection system
momentarily.
