NOTE: When the engine is being run within the RPM range of
3500–4200 RPM, there may be a slight RPM instability. This is
caused by the light engine load conditions normally seen with jet
lower units. This condition will not cause any adverse affects on
the engine.
Without sufficient cooling water, the engine, the water pump, and
other components will overheat and suffer damage. Provide a
sufficient supply of water to the water inlets during operation.
1. Ensure that the driveshaft bearing on the jet drive is lubricated.
Refer to Maintenance ‑ Lubrication Points.
2. Open the fuel tank vent screw, located in the filler cap, on
manual venting type fuel tanks.
3. Position the fuel line primer bulb so the arrow on the side of
the bulb is pointing up. Squeeze the fuel line primer bulb
several times until it feels firm.
