Hey everyone I have probably a very dumb question . Sorry i am not the sharpest tool in the shed when it come to o/b mechanics . Should water be coming out of the area at the top left corner of the foot just above top cav /vent plate when running on muffs ?

I am thinking this might be normal but I have not really noticed it before .
Thanks guys ! SP..

That's normal. The hose puts more water in then the water pump can pump so it overflows out.

I don't see a problem. Does the engine run without overheating at all speeds? If so, you don't have a problem.

We usually run engines in the test tank when we run them at the shop. However, I do run a few on a flusher and it is not unusual to see water coming from other parts of the lower unit. Especially since yours has the spaces between the lower unit and the midsection.
