Propulsion System
Inboard Engine Cooling System
All marine engines use surface water as a cool-
ing medium. The cooling water enters the sys-
tem through a water intake in the outdrive and
is expelled through the exhaust system. Water
is pumped through the water inlets, circulated
through the engine block or heat exchanger, and
relinquished with the exhaust gases through the
outdrive or thru-hull exhaust system.
The water pump uses a small impeller made of
synthetic rubber. The impeller and water pump
cannot run dry for more than a few seconds.
CAUTION
RUNNING THE ENGINE WITHOUT WATER FLOWING TO THE
WATER PUMP CAN CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE WATER
PUMP IMPELLER OR ENGINE. NEVER RUN THE MOTOR
WITHOUT WATER FLOWING TO THE WATER PUMP.
NOTICE:
If the boat is used in salt or badly polluted
water, engines without fresh water cooling
should be flushed after each use. Refer to
the engine owner’s manual for the proper
engine flushing procedure.
Fresh Water Cooling
(Optional on some Inboard engines)
Your boat could be equipped with a fresh water
cooling system. Installation of a “Fresh Water”
or Closed” cooling system that is cooled by a
heat exchanger and the seawater cooling system
provides adequate engine cooling without exposing
the internal engine cooling system to the harmful
effects of surface water. This system is optional
with the engine on your boat. The engine owner’s
manual provides additional information regarding
service and maintenance of this equipment.
CAUTION
A RUPTURED COOLING OR EXHAUST HOSE CAN CAUSE
SEVERE ENGINE DAMAGE OR ALLOW A LARGE AMOUNT OF
WATER TO FLOW INTO THE BILGE. SHOULD AN ENGINE INTAKE,
EXHAUST OR COOLING HOSE RUPTURE, TURN THE ENGINE
OFF IMMEDIATELY. PROCEED UNDER TOW IF NECESSARY, TO
A SERVICE FACILITY FOR APPROPRIATE REPAIRS. MAINTAIN
A CLOSE VISUAL WATCH ON THE PROBLEM HOSE AND THE
BILGE WATER LEVEL.
3.3 Outboard Engine Drive System
Each outboard motor is a complete drive sys-
tem with the gear case being just forward of the
propeller and connected to the power head with
a vertical drive shaft. All engines require some
maintenance. Routine maintenance recommend-
ed for your engine is outlined in the engine owner’s
manual. Routine maintenance is normally the
primary concern unless the boat is to be kept in
saltwater for extended periods of time. Then the
main concerns are marine growth and galvanic
corrosion.
Drive System Corrosion
Marine growth occurs when components are left
in the water for extended periods and can cause
poor performance or permanent damage to the
exposed components. The type of growth and how
quickly it occurs is relative to the water conditions
in your boating area. Water temperature, pollu-
tion, current, etc. can have an effect on marine
growth.
