Re: Honda 8 horse water pump
I cleaned out the hole. We have a problem here with leaf cutter bees plugging the pee hole so that was the first thing I checked. I tried to take the lower unit off but it would not seperate. I disconnected the shift linkage and took all the bolts out. Is there something else that holds the lower unit the power head. What is happening is at low idle the head is not getting enough water. The water temp sensor will shut down the engine. If I run it at a high idle to wide open it won't shut its self down. I can pull the wire of the temp sensor and it will run ok, all the time water is running out the pee hole it never stops even at low idle it just slows a little. Thanks for the help.
