Do not run the engine for more than 15
seconds on land without supplying water,
otherwise the engine could overheat.
Spray metallic parts of the hull and engine
with a rust inhibitor.
To rustproof the internal engine components:
(1) Remove the hood. (See page 26 for hoodremoval and installation procedures.)
(2) While loosening the clamp, remove the breather hose.
(3) Make sure that the area around the wa- tercraft is clear, and then start the engine
in a well-ventilated area.
(4) Run the engine at a fast idle.
(5) Quickly spray as much rust inhibitor as possible into the air intake duct through
the breather hose joint. Keep spraying
until the engine stalls (or a maximum of
15 seconds). WARNING! Do not pour or
spray gasoline, or any substance oth-
er than a rust inhibitor, into the air in-
take duct. Do not spray flammable
Recommended water-resistant grease:
