Finally getting back to getting this used motor running on my pontoon. New water pump, thermostat, and other cooling parts installed. Installed a water indicator. Motor is running good and nice and cool. However, not much water is flowing out of the prop hub on muffs. Most is spraying out. The midsection, particularly out the area where the swivel bracket bolts to the midsection. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas why. Is the passaGe through the hub likely blocked, forcing the water from the block out I correct places?
I hope all you guys are doing well, it's been a while since I posted here.
