Cooling water pilot outlets

This watercraft is equipped with cooling water pilot outlets on the port (left) and starboard (right) sides of the watercraft.

When the engine is running, cooling water is circulated in the engine, and then it is discharged from the pilot outlets.

To check for proper operation of the cooling system, check that water is being discharged from the port (left) pilot outlets. If water is not being discharged from these outlets, cooling water may not be circulating in the engine. When this occurs, stop the engine and check for the cause. (See pages 41 and 88 for more information.)

TIP:

If the cooling water passages are dry, it will take about 60 seconds for the water to reach the outlets after the engine is started.

Water discharge may not be constant at idle, therefore, open the throttle a little to

check that water discharges properly.
