I just picked up a 7.5 Eska which has never been in the water. I tested it in a drum for a short period and wondered if the water flow was normal.
Would you view 2 short videos I took to show the flow and comment on the water flow, they are posted at 1990 Sears Eska 7.5 Brand New Never In The Water 1 - YouTube

The head is air cooled so my guess is with the exhaust exiting underwater the pumped water keeps the housing cool. I may change this impeller out just because of the age, any help would be appreciated.
