Hi every one
The motor starts real good in the first attempt, so I think I did a good job in the magneto area, now my problem is that I can?t get the water pumping , I change the impeller and after this, I test in the barrel and I don?t get the water flowing in the thermostat housing is totally dry.
When I tested it , it was without the thermostat, but the check valve , spring and plastic housing in place, All dry. I stop the engine real soon to avoid any damage.
I read so many posts about it (Water pumping) and alway explain the possible solutions.
So far what I have done
1) Change Impeller, new one
2) Check the key is in position
3) Rubber grommets are in place for the pump. And in the top looks good I don?t want to take it out
4) Now the LU ins out again after like 4 attempts.
5) I have to check for blockage passages
I am trying to understand how this pump works and the two cooper tubes. (Do you have a diagram to explain it?)
First question?
Which one of the cooper tubes is the pressure one , (Right or left ) looking from the bottom of the engine, I am assuming is the left one am I right?
I am assuming that one cooper tube is the pressure one to lift the water to the head, and the first place the water goes is in the left side of the head thermostat, when is closed, how it works.
Second Question
The left port of the thermostat housing when I blow itor water it , I just get air or water in the exhaust of the engine is it right? Or should I get water in the cooper tube, because I put water in the top and I get water down
Other Question:
How high it should be the water in the barrel, I am putting water until the prime hole in the water pump , until when it starts the external cover in the motor, the one you take out to change the impeller (A lot of Phillips Screws). Should it be higher?, some posts saids until the exhaust hole is it right?
Thanks for your advice.
