Bought a 1990 hydrasports with a johnson gt 1500 on it. I hooked up muffs and started it up. Water is coming outta pisser good but i noticed water coming out of the front of the flange on lower unit. I am unfamiliar with johnson motors as i had force motors on my other boats. I was wondering if this was normal ? The water coming outta pisser is nice and kool the water coming out of flange is warmer

I posted video on you tube johnson gt 150

I had an old v4 evinrude outboard I recently sold and it had water coming out all the places I saw in your video. Check the gear oil, if its clean get her out on the water!
