Might could have one if there is a belt driven water pump. If such is the case it should be obvious to see. Normally the pump for the alpha's are in the drive and the water inlet holes serve as the strainer.I have a Mercruiser 5.0L 260 HP MPFI I/O on my boat. Is there a water strainer on this motor that I am supposed to be checking and emptying? It isn't clear from the owner's manual if these devices are present on all motors.
Thanks
