Hello all,
This motor has about 15 hours on it and this time out I noticed that the cooling system is putting out a minimal amount of water compared to what it typically does. There doesn't appear to be a large increase in flow when the engine is rev'd up and I am getting a bit more water out of the exhaust relief holes then I typically do. I am wondering if somehow the last time I was out some weeds maybe got stuck in the water pump since I was in a heavily weeded area. I have experience working on all kinds of engines, however none with outboards and am trying to get some opinions as to whether or not I should tear the lower end apart and look at the water pump. (The engine is under warranty still)
