I have a 2001 5 h.p. yamaha and I haven't used it in a couple months so i was gonna go crank it. Well it cranked and everything fine and i noticed at first there was a little water spitting out but not as much as there should be. then I cleaned out the water intake because there was some sand and cranked it up again and this time it was only spitting out steam! I'm thinking its a clog but i have no clue how to trouble shoot it, can you please help me in detail? Like step by step to help replace the impeller? Thanks in advance!!!
