As you can tell, I am beyond frustrated. Just bought this outboard, and overall it is very clean, and seems to have been well cared for. Rebulit carbs and installed new water pump kit with housing and all. Made sure all lines / tubes were clear by blowing with compressed air. Trying to line up the pick up tube while reinstalling the lower unit was a S.O.B. but confirmed that the tube is going down into the pump housing. Start her up, runs good, but NO WATER FROM PEE HOLE! Shut it down before she got too hot. Don't see a thermostat anywhere. Drop lower unit, check it all again, nothing unusual found. The only thing I can think of would be the top end of the pick up tube, but how in the hell do you check that? Do I have to tear down the motor? Any help greatly appreciated!
