Yamaha 5hp Water Pump

[AriseKillEat]

I have a 98 5hp Yamaha, The water coming out from the water pump comes out at a run not a spray or stream. I"m pretty sure that its not clogged. Is this the way it should be on a motor this small or do I need a new pump? Thanks Jason

When was it changed last?

I would replace it.
pull and test/ replace the thermostat while you are at it. All are part of proper maintenance
