Posted once before about my merc having a pee issue. Here is a video of it running. My 85 would pee once it started up, this one clearly seems to take a while. I've had the water pump apart many times, blew through all the water jackets in the power head, even went so far as to pull the power head off and run water through it. Is there a thermostat on this thing somewhere? Any advice is welcome.

Thanks in advance! Rick.

Mine did the same on muffs took a few to get her going, but if you put her in the water she pee's like a charm.

guess I need a barrel then. Don't want to get to the lake to find out something is wrong. It was a long paddle to the dock when the 85 let go :(

Cheers Rick.
