If the engine floods
GL models:
1.
Disengage the shift mechanism.
2.
Move the remote control handle to
FULL THROTTLE.
3.
Turn the key switch to
START.
4.
As soon as the engine starts:
·
Return the remote control handle to
IDLE.
·
Turn the key to
ON or RUN.
·
Move the remote control handle to
FAST IDLE to warm up
the engine. Do not exceed 1000 RPM.
Gi, GXi,
models:
Advance the control handle to ¾ throttle to clear a flooded en-
gine. In this throttle position, with the engine speed below 400
RPM (cranking speed), the ECM turns off the fuel injectors so
no fuel is delivered. When the throttle position is moved to full
throttle or less than ¾ throttle, the ECM returns to the starting
mode.
Be prepared to quickly move the control handle to
IDLE once
the engine starts. This will avoid speeding and possibly damag-
ing the engine.
CAUTION!
Immediately after engine start-up, look at all instru-
ments. If any readings are abnormal, stop the engine
and determine the cause.
If you do not move the remote control handle to IDLE as soon
as the engine starts, the engine will overspeed and could be
damaged.
When you start your engine for the first time after off-season
storage, always run the engine in IDLE for one minute to allow
the water pump to prime.
Starting the engine (warm start)
1. Move the control handle to the
NEUTRAL detent position.
2. Turn the key switch to
START and hold until the engine
starts, but for no longer than 10 seconds. If the engine
does not start, let go momentarily, then try again.
3. As soon as the engine starts, release the key to
ON or RUN.
CAUTION!
Never leave the key in the ON position with the en-
gine not running. This could damage the engine.
Never turn the key to START when the engine is run-
ning. This could damage the engine.
