I have a 2000 150hp Johnson. I have been using the flushing port (not using ears) and connecting the hose up to that to flush it. HOwever, I have been running the engine during flushing. Has this damaged the water pump? How concerned should I be?
Timeking, Using the flushing port and running the motor is perfectly fine, according to the owners manual for that motor. The flushport provides water to the impeller as well.
