no water going thru it at all.. been thru lots of weed and crap lately so its most likely blocked.. the outer filter holes near the bottom are clear so its an internal blockage..<br /><br />just looking for hints on how to get at the impellor and what i need to do to it take apart and where its likely to be blocked.. i dont think it was run dry for long enough to ruin the impellor but it might have..<br /><br />the main alpha 1 leg/outdrive seemed remarkably tolerant to the weed mud and silt abuse its just had but the little outboard troller hasnt survived it.. <br /><br />trog100
