Just picked this engine up. Got it running but am not sure the water pump is working. Where does the water exit the engine?

Also would anyone have the operators manual? I have already down loaded the service manual.

Water spits out the 2 rows of small holes half way up the back of the midsection. You should change the impeller if you don't know when it was last changed.

Most of the water goes out with he underwater exhaust, but some sprays out the small holes about half way down the motor leg as an indicator.

Thanks for the replies. I was wondering what those holes were for. Parts have been ordered. Thanks again.

Just got an email back on my parts order, they don't ship to Canada. Any advice on who to try?
