Today I finally got my Force 35 started.
First thing I looked for was water coming out of the exhausts to see if the water pump was working. There was no water. I took thermostat cover off to see if water was being pumped (the Force does not have a thermostat). I saw some traces of water there because it was a little bit wet.
Being concerned I took the lower unit off and checked the impeller. The impeller looked fine. I put everything back and restarted. Once again, no water from the exhaust and barely wet when I took off the thermostat cover.
Does anyone have any ideas? I took an air hose and blew everything out and there is no obstructions. Should I just replace the impeller anyway?
