The water is just kinda dripping out the drain hole while Idle? Is it supose to do that? Even running wide open it is not coming out like I think it probally should.
Re: 1973 Mercury 85 HP Water barley coming out when Idle
When was the last time an impeller was put in it? Also, check to make sure no varmints have stopped up your tell-tail. You should have a steady stream of water coming out.

stick a piece of wire in the hole and twirl around a bit mine did the same thing and it kept cloging but after about 5 times of doing that it came out steady and clear ......
