Cooling System Indicator
COOLING SYSTEM INDICATOR
Water should flow from the cooling
system indicator while the engine is
running. This shows that water is
circulating through the cooling
system.
If water stops flowing while the
engine is running, it indicates a
cooling system problem, such as
clogged water intakes, which will
cause engine overheating.
The cooling system indicator
discharge port can also become
plugged.

CONTROLS AND FEATURES
Rev Limiter
The engine is equipped with a rev
limiter to prevent the possibility of
mechanical damage from excessive
engine speed.
The rev limiter may be activated
during operation, limiting engine
speed, if the outboard motor is
trimmed or tilted up excessively, or
when propeller ventilation occurs
during a sharp turn.
If the rev limiter is activated, check
the trim angle of the outboard motor.
Check to see if the correct propeller is
installed.
