    Default 85HP evinrude water pump flow?

    I have a 1979 85HP and i've had a few johnson 115's but this 79 85hp has the pee hole and it does squirt lol...my ? is the two ex holes in back flows like two water hoses! my others you'd see a mist out of them but this one pours
    out of each hole. the motor does not run hot but just wondering if it's normal?

    That's not normal for sure. Are you getting water out the prop too? If not, you could have a clog in the lower or midsection.

    Ok so it's not right to flow like that, I'll check the prop area tonight and see.
