Following Complete Submersion
Submerged engine treatment is divided into 3 distinct
problem areas. The most critical is submersion in salt
water; the second is submersion while running.
Salt Water Submersion (Special
Instructions)
Due to the corrosive effect of salt water on internal en-
gine components, complete disassembly is neces-
sary before any attempt is made to start the engine.
Submerged While Running (Special
Instructions)
When an engine is submerged while running, the
possibility of internal engine damage is greatly in-
creased. If, after engine is recovered and with spark
plugs removed, engine fails to turn over freely when
turning flywheel, the possibility of internal damage
(bent connecting rod and/or bent crankshaft) exists.
If this is the case, the powerhead must be disas-
sembled.
Submerged Engine (Fresh Water)
(Plus Special Instructions)
1. Recover engine as quickly as possible.
2. Remove cowling.
3. Flush outside of engine with fresh water to re-
move mud, weeds, etc. DO NOT attempt to start
engine if sand has entered powerhead, as power-
head will be severely damaged. Disassemble
powerhead if necessary to clean components.
4. Remove spark plugs and get as much water as
possible out of powerhead. Most water can be
eliminated by placing engine in a horizontal posi-
tion (with spark plug holes down) and rotating fly-
wheel.
5. Pour alcohol into carburetor throat (alcohol will
absorb water). Again rotate flywheel.
6. Turn engine over and pour alcohol into spark plug
openings and again rotate flywheel.
7. Turn engine over (place spark plug opening
down) and pour engine oil into throat of carbure-
tors while rotating flywheel to distribute oil
throughout crankcase.
8. Again turn engine over and pour approximately
one teaspoon of engine oil into each spark plug
opening. Again rotate flywheel to distribute oil in
cylinders.
9. Remove and clean carburetors and fuel pump
assembly.
