Uncle Buck Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Fired the motor up today and it was nice and easy... noticed no water coming out of the pee hole... not sure if i ever ran it on the muffs before? Also read somewhere that some motors have thermostats that open up and allow water through... not sure if this is the case with my motor? was down out the marina talking with them. mechanic wasn't in and lady didn't know... i did blow air through the pee hole a few times, so it shouldn't be blocked... any ideas?

Roy Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Put the lower unit in water, power it up and run a weedeater type line through it from the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Usually it's an old chunk of weed or debris from the previous season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizzo Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 depending on temps some motors take a bit of time before they pee out. When I'm out in freezing temps I've seen it 30-45 seconds (which feels like an eternity when you're watching). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
