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, that indicates a
cooling system problem, such as
clogged water intakes, which will
cause engine overheating. Refer to
TAKING CARE OF UNEXPECTED
PROBLEMS
, on p.
91
The cooling system indicator
discharge port can also become
plugged.

CONTROLS AND FEATURES
OTHER FEATURES
Overrev Limiter
The engine is equipped with an
overrev limiter to prevent the
possibility of mechanical damage
from excessive engine speed.
The overrev limiter may be activated
during operation, limiting engine
speed, if the outboard motor is tilted
excessively, or when propeller
ventilation occurs during a sharp turn.
If the overrev limiter is activated,
check the trim angle of the outboard
motor.
