Oil Pressure Gauge
The oil pressure gauge is a good indicator of most, if not
all, serious problems that may occur within your engine. A
preset valve in the oil pump controls the maximum oil
pressure. Check the engine oil level before every trip and
fill if low. If oil level is full and gauge reading is low, contact
your dealer or a qualified mechanic to correct the problem.
Do not restart the engine until correcting the problem. See
the engine manufacturer’s specifications for correct
pressure ranges.
Engine Damage! Operation at low oil pressure can
seriously damage engine. Stop engine immediately if oil
pressure is low.
Water Pressure Gauge
The water pressure gauge measures the pressure of the
engine cooling water. If the gauge registers a low pressure,
the water intake may be clogged or the drive unit may be
tilted up too high. Low pressure can cause the engine to
overheat.
Water Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge measures the temperature of the
engine cooling system. Check this gauge often whenever
the engine is running. Outboard engines draw sea water,
circulate it through the engine and expel it overboard
through the exhaust system. If the temperature gauge
shows that the engine is hot, stop the engine immediately.
Refer to your engine owner’s manual for instructions and
corrective action.
