I have a 5.7GXI with a 2004 DPX out drive. This may seem like an odd question as I have not seen anyone ask it.
basically I have a priming issue with a new oem pump. I have read everything I can find.
My question is with the Muffs on a hose, water on, and the pump intake hose off the pump. Shouldn’t I get water winning out the feed hose?
additional info.
if I pressurize the system with everything hooked up using the flushing port I get water flow out the water intake ports but don’t seem to get water flow the other direction.
Thoughts? I am leaning toward some kind of blockage in the steering pump cooler.
