Operating Temperature

An outboard run at idle speed should achieve a
temperature based on the engine's thermostatic
control. In general, the powerhead temperature
should reach at least 104°F (40°C) after five min-
utes of idling. Check that the powerhead reaches
idle temperature.

Leaks

Perform running checks of the as follows:
•
Start outboard.
•
Inspect all fuel hoses and connections.
•
Inspect all oil hoses and connections.
•
Inspect all cooling water hoses and connec-
tions.
•
Repair any leaks or misrouted hoses immedi-
ately.

Idle Speed

Make sure the outboard idles within the specified
idle RPM range. If the outboard is run on a flush-
96
ing device, the idle speed and quality may not be
representative of actual in water use.
