If the throttle is closed suddenly after
full throttle operation, engine speed
may drop below the specified idle
rpm, and that could activate the
engine protection system
momentarily.
If low oil pressure activates the
engine protection system, stop the
engine, check the engine oil level
(p. ), and add oil if needed.
With the engine oil at the
recommended level, restart the
engine. If the lubrication system is
OK, the oil pressure indicator should
come on within 30 seconds, and the
engine will respond normally to
throttle control lever operation.
If the engine protection system
remains activated after 30 seconds,
return to the nearest boat landing, and
have the outboard motor inspected by
an authorized Honda Marine dealer.
