I fired up my 1975 50hp Merc for the first time of the season today. Usually there's a little water spraying out of the upper exhaust hole, but today there was a lot more than usual. Is this alright or is my exhaust gasket leaking? <br /> http://media.putfile.com/Water-In-Exhaust <br /><br />Thanks,<br />Eric

Never mind, I think it's just from the increased backpressure of running it in a bucket instead of muffs, so more is coming out the upper holes.<br />Eric
