I have a 60 Merc Tracker, Down by the boot there is a plastic 1/4 inch hose that feeds the top of the motor with water, I was messing with it to see if I could adjust where it was hitting and pulled it from the shaft housing. its barbed at the end with a fitting (Plastic)
Question, was it pluggeg into a hose inside that feeds the top. or just plugged into the case. I do not see how to reconnect a hose if its in there. I did not get flow from the port after I pluged it into the case. Should have left it alone,. Thanks for any help

Re: Cooling Question

".. down by the boot" ....

Do you mean on the "lower unit/gear housing" ? ....

If so I think it could be a speedometer hose/hookup. Are you sure it has anything to do with water pumping - if it is on the Power head or just below it could be the "tell tale" / the pisser which shows whether or not your water pump is functioning ....

Just a couple ideas
