No, the water and exhaust come out of two small holes on the back of the leg at idle. At higher speeds, it comes out under water.

See the sticky at the beginning of the forum for how to install a tell tale. It is very easy.

I saw the two holes in the back I thougt that that was what they were for but when I started the motor all I got out of them is a little steam and the leg and lower unit were hot to the touch so I thought the it want pumping water so I dropped the lower unit but all was fine there . The lower unit is a bear getting back on any tips would be app.
