    Water leaking from weep holes after impeller change

    Changes out the impeller on 01 alpha gen 2. Hooked it up to muffs and I have water leaking from the weep holes on front top of lower drive. It didn't do this before the new impeller. Is the water pump hose not sealed? Anyone had this issue?
