aged. If the engine will not start after 5
seconds of cranking, return the main
switch to “ ” (on), wait 10 seconds,
then crank the engine again.

Cooling water
Check for a steady flow of water from the
cooling water pilot hole. A continuous flow of
water from the cooling water pilot hole shows
that the water pump is pumping water
through the cooling water passages.
TIP:
When the engine is started, there may be a
slight delay before water flows from the cool-
ing water pilot hole.
