Hi guys,


Got this motor from my grandpa. The water pump went out on him and the motor overheated. He had a brand new tecumseh power head put in it, but during that time he bought another motor and had no need for this one anymore. Anyway, he told me that even after the rebuild ] the tell tale was not streaming water like it had previously. I put in a new impellar, lubed all the seals on the water pump with bearing grease, and made sure the water tube mated with the lower unit correctly. It is a pumping a little more water, but really it's still a little sputtery. Does this water flow look low to you guys? (see video)
