Does water exiting the tell tale hole on my engine have to pass through the thermostats?<br />When I have the boat in my yard, I get no flow out of the tell tale until the heads feel pretty warm. Should there be a good stream of water flowing out with the engine at idle regardless of engine temp.

Follow the tattle tale hose back to where it exits the motor. My '96 200hp comes from t-stats.<br /><br /> :)
