    Engine water flow issue

    I'm not sure that I'm following on the shift shaft scratches. That's where I notice a ton of water shooting out. Should there be a gasket or seal on the lower shift shaft?

    Engine water flow issue

    It comes out everywhere but the exhaust tube, shoots out of the shift shaft hole and the escape hole at the bottom of the lower unite like what you'd see on a full outboard.

    Engine water flow issue

    I've figured out the issue isn't onboard it's in the lower unit. I put a brand new impeller on but it's not 'pumping' water. I took a garden hose and put it on the upper water tube and got perfect flow when I turned the engine on so something is wrong with the lower unit pump. I read that...

    Engine water flow issue

    I've done more digging around, I shoved a water hose on the upper water tube coming out of the upper unit, turned the engine on, water flowed from both exhaust on the relief ports at the transom. I'd never gotten such good water flow with the lower unit on. So my issue is something with the...

    Engine water flow issue

    Update: I haven’t turned the engine on yet but I shoved a water hose on in every hose and I got flow through every one of them, filled the manifolds and dumped out the relief ports (which I haven’t seen with it on muffs). I also shoved the water hose up the lower unit water tube and got water...

    Mine is warm, I have two separate hoses, one into manifold and one into elbow. I have the T at the front with the balls inside. Which as I understand would be the constant water and then the manifolds get it after it’s gone through the engine. I’ve verified those balls move freely but haven’t...

    Engine water flow issue

    I checked the risers and manifolds, they’re completely clear, blew air through them and some dust came out, otherwise clear. Water is making its way up into the circulation pump but not into the elbows.

    Engine water flow issue

    Help? I’m working on a 1985 Mercruiser I/O with a A1G1 leg. I have a water supply issue, not enough water is making it around. Exhaust elbows are getting north of 220 degrees in about 10-15 minutes. Engine hits 180 and I shut it off. (On muffs, I have done the same test on water and same result)...
