8. Slowly return the throttle grip to the fully closed position.
CAUTION:
When the engine is cold, it needs to be warmed up.
If the engine does not start on the first try, repeat the procedure.
If the engine fails to start after 4 or 5 tries, open the throttle a small amount (between 1/8 and 1/4),
and try again.
2.6 Warming up engine
1. After starting the engine, allow it to idle for 3 minutes to warm up. Failure to do so will shorten engine
life. Gradually return the choke knob to its home position as the engine warms up.
2. Check for steady flow of water from the cooling water pilot hole.
