Following Engine Starting on page 20, start
the outboard. If the outboard was auto-winter-
ized, it will smoke for a short time after the first
start of the season.
Let engine idle and observe running quality. If
poor, refer to Troubleshooting on page 46 or
see your Dealer.
Let engine idle and confirm water pump oper-
ation. Water must flow from the water pump
indicator in a steady stream. If it does not,
shut off the outboard and investigate. Refer to IMPORTANT: Some running profiles and
