Ok so i dropped the lower unit to replace the impeller. I removed the hoses from the thermostat housing to check if there was any blockage. Ran the water hose from the water intake tube, Portside had a nice flow, Didn't get anything from the starboard side. I decided to remove the waterjacket cover and gasket to see if there was any blockage. There wasn't much water coming out of the two slots insde. Just some spitting. What should be my next step? Should I install the waterjacket and do a back flush from the hoses?
