I have a Circa 1980s BF100 long shaft. After fixing the water pump by buying the seal ring that allows water to move up the water tube, I was able to finally see the water pee out the side. But I noticed that water spitting out of the split case of the inlet manifold toward the rear shooting out...
No I think it is okay now. The seal did work and the pee hole is working. But now I notice the inlet manifold leaks water at the gasket seam until it heated up and stopped. IS this okay?
