Flushing the Cooling System
Flush the internal water passages of the outboard with fresh water after each use in salt, polluted, or muddy
water. This will help prevent a build-up of deposits from clogging the internal water passages.
IMPORTANT: The engine must be run during flushing in order to open the thermostat and circulate water through
the water passages.
NOTE: You can have the outboard tilted or in the vertical operating position during flushing.
!
WARNING
To avoid possible injury when flushing, remove the propeller. Refer to Propeller Replacement.
1. Place the outboard in either the operating position (vertical) or in a tilted position.
2. Remove propeller. Refer to Propeller Replacement.
3. Thread a water hose into the rear fitting. Partially open the water tap (1/2 maximum). Do not open the
water tap all the way, as this allows a high pressure flow of water.
IMPORTANT: Do not run engine above idle when flushing.
4. Shift outboard into neutral. Start the engine and flush the cooling system for at least five minutes. Keep
engine speed at idle.
5. Stop the engine. Turn off the water and remove the hose. Reinstall the propeller.
