Hi all, first timer on here so please bear with me, my question is how long do it take for the water to come out of the telltale on a yamaha 250 4 stroke outboard after sitting for the winter, last year started engine ran it for about 10 seconds didn't see any water shut it down as a safety step, was told to let it run for about 2 minutes until the engine filled up with water, did that and water came out used boat all season, no problem, today I start it run for 3 to 4 minutes, nothing happens, take it out of tank and apply muffs, same thing 2 to 3 minutes nothing happens, I keep hearing to let it run longer but am nervous, any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance
