FILLING THE FUEL SYSTEM
Turn the ignition key switch to the
RUN
position for approximately six seconds
to operate the fuel pumps. Start and operate the engine to purge any remaining
air from the fuel system. The engine may run rough while the air is purging
through the fuel injectors. Purging air may take longer if the vessel mounted
fuel filter is installed further away from the engine. Increasing the throttle during
engine operation will purge air from the fuel system more quickly.
Inspect Transom Tightness
Inspect the outboard for tightness to the boat transom. If any looseness of the
outboard or mounting fasteners exist, tighten the outboard mounting fasteners
to the specified torque. When looking for signs of looseness, look for loss of
outboard transom bracket material or paint caused by movement between the
outboard mounting fasteners and the outboard transom brackets. Also look for
signs of movement between the outboard transom brackets and the boat
transom (lift plate/setback bracket).
