The warranty repair should be completed in a reasonable

WARRANTY COVERAGE:
Honda outboard engines manufactured after June 1, 2001
are covered by this warranty for a minimum of four years
or 250 operating hours, whichever comes first, or the
length of the Honda Marine Distributor's Limited
warranty, whichever is longer from the date of delivery
to the retail purchaser. This warranty is transferred to
each subsequent purchaser for the duration of the
warranty period.
Warranty repairs will be made without charge for
diagnosis, parts and labor. All defective parts replaced
under this warranty become the property of American
Honda Motor Co., Inc. A list of warranty parts is on page
144. Normal maintenance items, such as spark plugs and
filters, that are on the warranted parts list are warranted
up to their required replacement interval only.

damages to other engine components caused by a failure
of any warranted part during the warranty period.
Only Honda approved replacement parts will be used in
the performance of any warranty repairs and they will be
provided without charge to the owner. The use of
replacement parts not equivalent to the original parts may
impair the effectiveness of your engine's emission
control system. If such a replacement part is used in the
repair or maintenance of your engine, and an authorized
Honda Marine dealer determines it is defective or causes
a failure of a warranted part, your claim for your engine
