1996 mercury 150 water pump problems

[surfcaster52]

would any one know what merc part # 85822A10 does
(connector assembly)......looks like some kind of return tube in the lower unit..........i just replaced my water pump assembly and it will not pump water and looking at a schematic of the lower unit my motor has nothing where this connector is supposed to be except a plastic hose connector but nothing attached to it...........
thanks

That sounds like the speedometer tube it's in the front and is pointed if it is
