I did the start up procedure according to manual. Water was pumped into intake holes and engine started. Water never sprayed out of the pilot water hole so the engine was shut down to avoid damage. I tried the same process with the intake holes submerged under water. Water never sprayed out of the pilot water hole. How long can I run the motor. Should it be at idle or should I increase throttle to prime water pump. It's a new motor.
