Rick,I always recommend that you pull the hose off the thermostat housing on the port side that comes from the transom. Hook up muffs with that hose hangin there and fire up your motor. If you get good flow it should be able to fill a 5 gallon bucket in 30 or so seconds, then the impeller is doing the job. If it doesn't, then the problem is between there and the impeller.
I plan to do this today. I will look at schematics to make sure it is the right one. So many hoses tied into the thermostat housing. I am going to order another kit. My question to you is what kit do you buy? I ordered the last one from GLM Part #12043, with this happening I am losing faith in them, or my ability to put it on correctly. I am going to replace the housing as well, just too many times to take it on and off. Thank you all for the input. Nothing more than creating a problem that was not there to begin with. Before i did any of the maintenance on the boat I started it on the muffs in the drive way. Had full discharge, I have missed something on the impeller but will remove the hose before taking it off again. Man I love this stuff.
