Operations
2. Check for a steady flow of water from the cooling water pilot hole.
CAUTION
A continuous flow of water from the cooling water pilot hole shows that the water pump is
pumping water through the cooling passages. If water is not flowing out of the hole at all times
while the engine is running, overheating and serious damage could occur. Stop the engine and
check whether the cooling water inlet on the lower case or the cooling water pilot hole is blocked.
Consult your dealer if the problem cannot be located and corrected.
