Anybody have any ideal's about the water tube on this engine?
Where could I get one? Is it plastic or metal? Please see previous post:)
Thank you!

I'm not familiar with the Chrysler motors, but on the later Force motors, the tubes are made of of metal. Not sure exactly what type...maybe copper or bronze. Shouldn't be hard to duplicate...if you can find the right diameter tube.

Thanks for the reply. I think I may try that.
I for the life of me cannot see where the tube would seal itself in the upper unit to be able to do much cooling at all! there is no apperant hole that i can see to put it.:eek:

The water tube is brass or copper. There is a rubber grommet on the bottom of your power head that the water tube must connect to. If you take the lower unit off and tilt the motor up and shine a strong flashlight like a mag light you will see the grommet. The water tube part number is F141244 but is no longer avaiible. bummer is that it only costed 15 bucks.
