First off I basically have no knowledge/experience with marine motors. I have worked on cars so I'm not completely lost on the concept. Someone recently gave a old boat with a Merc 500 on it. Supposedly the motor went thru an overhaul about a year ago and has been sitting since then. All I know about the motor is that it is a Merc 500 4 stroke 50hp. I hooked up the muff and a battery and got it to start. With full "choke" on I let it run for a bit. When I pulled back on the choke lever it sputtered a for a minute then died. Is this normal? I was hesitant to keep it running and trying because I noticed there was no water coming out of a pee hole (which I can't figure out exactly where that is supposed to be). There was water coming out of the exhaust and two small holes a little higher on the unit. I took the lower unit apart and pulled the water pump out and noticed broken pieces of plastic. The impeller and everything else looked fine (to my untrained eye). Thinking this was the problem I put it back together and still no pee. I have searched and searched for an answer but with no luck. There is a hole where I think the pee hole should be based on videos I've watched but no hose hooked up to it. Also there is a weird cut hose with screws in the ends. See photos. I have no idea what year this thing is and I'm extremely frustrated. I want to get this thing on the water but reluctant to cause more damage to the motor. What should I do?!?!
