1988 25hp Evinrude still not pumping water

[October1]

Well after replacing the impeller and the washer at the top of the tube that comes out of the impeller and blowing air through the top pee hole the motor still isn't pumping water. I'm at a loss. Anyone have any idea's as to what it could be?

Also... Do I have this right in the picture? Are these all pee holes or just the top one?

Take off the cover, and look for a hose running to the pan. Should be attached to a fitting through the pan.

The pan? (Sorry, I'm not real bright on this stuff!)

The "pan" is the lower cowling (the part where you point to the "top one" in your picture).

By the way, those bottom holes are "exhaust relief ports"...some water may spit or mist out of them (normal).

Thank you! I appreciate everybody's patience with my ignorance.

BTW, I kind of got two threads going on this. I didn't mean to do that. It just kinda worked out that way.

Are you using muffs or a barrel?

Sorry for the late reply. For some reason I'm not getting email notifications when someone posts.

I was using muffs. Although the last time we tried a 55 gallon barrel but we only filled it about 8" above the water intake.
