Procedures
With engine warmed up and at operating speed, alternately
restrict and clear the end of the suction line (while it is
under water). This activity will produce a changing load con-
dition. As the load changes, the engine speed will also
change. The governor should prevent wild swings in engine
speed as the load on the pump varies. If wild swings of
engine speed occur as the suction line is partially restricted
and then cleared, notify direct support maintenance.

CAUTION
Disconnect battery cable from negative (-) bat-
tery post before disconnecting any other leads
from engine components. This precaution will
prevent short circuits which could damage alter-
nator, voltage regulator, or other parts.
Inspect starter motor assembly for exterior damage.
Inspect
terminal nuts and mounting bolts.
Also check for frayed wires
or cables connected to starter motor that may cause faulty
operation. Replace any frayed or damaged wires and cables
as
described in paragraph 4-21. If starter motor does not work
after correcting above problems, replace starter motor assem-
bly as described in paragraph 4-21. Replace battery cable.
