motor side)
PRIMING BULB
INLET END

that the arrow on the priming bulb

the outboard motor. Check for leaks.

Be careful not to spill any fuel.
Spilled fuel vapor may ignite. If
any fuel is spilled, make sure the
area is dry before starting the
engine.
Do not touch the priming bulb with
the engine running or when tilting
up the outboard motor. The vapor
separator could overflow.
