My 92 70 HP evinrude has very little overboard water coming out the overflow tube on the R/H aft side of the engine.<br /><br />Would anyone have an idea as to why the engine is doing this. It use to have a lot of water coming out. could it be the pump is faulty.<br /><br />Thanks

Re: Water pump problems

Do the water pump, t-stats and change the gear oil. This is the normal stuff for a new "old" engine.
