Confirm water pump operation. Water must
flow from the water pump indicator in a steady
stream. If it does not, shut off the outboard
and investigate. Refer to Engine Overheat-
ing on page 22.
Stop the outboard and check the fuel system
for leaks.

in fire or explosion.
SPARK PLUGS
WARNING
HULL FINISH
The condition of your boat’s bottom affects
performance. Marine growth or bottom paint-
ing may reduce speed and fuel efficiency.
For maximum performance, keep the boat’s
running surface clean by rinsing it with fresh
water and wiping it dry. Apply Evinrude anti-
corrosion spray to any surface subject to cor-
rosion, but avoid the anti-corrosion anode(s).
The ignition system presents a serious
shock hazard. The primary circuit oper-
ates in excess of 200 volts; the second-
ary circuit operates in excess of 25,000
volts. Use caution to avoid injury from
shock or injury resulting from your
reaction to shock. Do not handle pri-
mary or secondary ignition compo-
nents while the engine is cranking or
running.

damage.
The high gloss finish will show polish marks
when viewed closely in certain light condi-
tions. This glossing is NORMAL.
Periodically, wash the entire boat and out-
board with soapy water and apply a coat of
automotive wax. Leave the engine cover in
place when washing the outboard.
SUBMERGED OUTBOARD
If your outboard has been under water, have
it serviced immediately upon recovery. If
immediate service is unavailable, resub-
merge it in fresh water to avoid prolonged ex-
posure to the atmosphere.
After submersion, all boat and engine electri-
cal, fuel, and oiling systems must be inspect-
ed for signs of water intrusion. Your Dealer
should perform this service.
IMPORTANT: When trailering your outboard,
DO NOT cover the engine with canvas—it
will dull the finish of the outboard’s engine
covers.
