I just got my boat out of storage for 3 yrs. Put new gas in and fired it up, i have a fast drip out for the water output. i was wondering if the water pump was bad and if so is there a schematic on how to replace it or check it? the model number is E70TLCEM. thanks for any replys.

If you're talking about the pisser, first verify that the hose to hole is clear. After all that time it could have gunk in it. I have that engine, and I just ran the 1/4" tube out the cowl without the fitting b/c it got clogged up often.
The pisser is just a tell-tale, not a functioning part.

Thanks David, thats exactly what it was, we think it was because it was winterized before it was put away many years ago something they put in the water pump got up in the lines and then sat for to long. Because it felt like a waxy substance. so we just removed the lines and ran a coat hanger through it. Man that saved us from having to rip off the lower unit and rebuild everything.
