ok, so i replaced my impeller due to no tell-tale water. when i got it apart, the impeller was definately in bad shape. a couple of cracked fins, and the rubber was hardened, but nothing had broken off. i put it in the tank this morning to test it, and it pees strong when idling and at higher rpms in neutral. at the end of the test i put it in forward and reverse, to make sure i didnt bump it out of gear when reistalling the LU, and when i put it in gear( forward or reverse) the peeing stopped. i only let the motor run for another 10secs or so, because i didnt want to overheat it. would the peeing have started up again? is it possible for the water pump to only work in neutral and not work when in gear? the motor went into gear easily. after it didnt pee in gear, i cut engine off, put back in neutral, and it starting peeing again. any ideas? the motor is a 1982 mercury 50HP 4cyl.
