Water pump- i dont know whats up!

[lew]

Kevin, this may be a long shot, but I had a 2001 Merc, 6HP kicker motor and the intake for the cooling water was on the underside of the cavitation plate and actually facing down, so the muffs wouldn't work on that particular motor.

 

Any chance yours may be the same set-up and your placing the muffs over something other than the intake vents ??

hmm..

i don't think thats the case, Lew.

i see the intake perfectly clear.. i did the same as the previous owner, except his hose had alot more pressure than mine.. so that couldve been a reason, but i'm thinking you don't need so much pressure.. because thats why its called a PUMP...
