●
Check that the idle hole stays high
enough to keep out water getting inside
engine even if the boat is in stationary
with maximum load.
●
Incorrect engine height or obstructions
to the smooth flow of water (such as the
design or condition of the boat, or ac-
cessories such as transom ladders or
depth finder transducers) can create air-
borne water spray while the boat is
cruising. If the motor is operated contin-
uously in the presence of airborne water
spray, enough water could enter the en-
gine through the intake opening on the
cowling to cause severe engine dam-
age. Eliminate the cause of the airborne
water spray.
