I replaced the waterpump on my 1993 johnson 48 about a year ago and it has been working fine and peeing strong. Ran it for about an hour the other day and my motor started to die. Looked back and steam was coming out of the pisser. I blew through the hose and it was clear. Motor still starts and runs fine but absolutely no water out of exhaust or taddle tale. Any suggestions?

the stream is an indicator the impeller is pumping. clear line, no water, failed impeller. time to drop the lower again.

I just cant understand how it went from going strong to nothing. I thought they slowly went out. Is it possible something stripped out.
