So I had this lower unit off to replace the water pump. And now that its back together I'm getting water out the **** hole and three other spots in the lower unit. I don't recall any other water coming out of the lower unit before. So do you think I had too much water pressure or possibly the rubber tube that connects to the copper tube is off? I did't notice this happening when I put it all back together. So this is a few days after. Only thing i can think of would be water pressure on the muffs. Maybe I'll try using a garbage can with water in it.
