Re: 1967 evinrude water pump
cblguy4u,<br /><br />At idle you will have a spray out of the exhaust relief port, (about 3/4 way up leg from prop-facing rearward).<br /><br />At planing seeds, the output will be slow stream.<br /><br />If you are worried about overheating, run the engine on the muffs or in a barrel. Touch the top cylinder heads with your fingers. If you can hold your hand there for a few seconds, it's probably OK (145 degrees).<br /><br />If you do not know the history of water pump service, change it.
