I have a 50 HP force (1988) that I put new impeller and installed telltale in last year. Telltale has worked great with a solid stream of water. Took boat out and it ran great all day(about 8 gallons of running time). On my way in got in some eel grass and plugged intake causing a hissing steam sound out telltale. Without turning motor off I tilted motor up removed grass(took 2 seconds if that) and was on my way. However even though I cleared intake I no longer get a solid stream of water out telltale I installed.....seems like excess air pressure coming out telltale and more of a spitting then a stream. Motor starts right up in barrel and stays cool but what is causing all the air to come out pee hole (I know air comes out factory telltale but telltale I installed was always a steady stream of water). Any suggestions or info appreciated.
