Hey Guys,
Got a Merc 5.7 LX with bravo 3.
Did not use the boat for several months. Driveway kept.
A few weeks ago however I started her up, changed the oil, gave it a look over.
Everything seemed fine.
Today I was going to out. I started her up in the driveway to warm up. Always at idle. I'm standing there watching the ears making sure they are over the intake holes on the lower... all of a sudden I realize NO water is coming out of the exhaust. I jump on and turn it off. The temp seemed to be OK 130. BUT it usually takes a while for that temp needle to move.
I think I need some help to figure out where to TS first...
No weird noises, spinning nice always... just no water circulating.
No water spilling into the hull anywhere.
Any ideas??
thanks in advance!!!
