Default 150HP Mariner won't pee while idling

I have a 1988 150HP Mariner Magnum II that will not pee at an idle or at low speeds. I already replaced the water pump last year with no results.What now?

Did you replace just the impeller or the whole kit (housing)?

Impeller and housing could be the problem. However you might pull off the cooling hoses and check them for corrosion build up. Ensure all fittings are also free of debris
