Battery Precautions - EFI
CAUTION
In multi-EFI power packages, each engine must be connected to
its own battery. This provides the required voltage source for the
ECM. In these applications where battery switches are used, it is
important that each switch be positioned to allow each engine to
run off its own individual battery. DO NOT run engines with the
battery switches in "BOTH" or "ALL" positions. This will allow the
other engine's battery to be used in case of emergency to start the
engine with the dead battery.
