My issue is my 91 Yamaha 150 Outboard is not spitting water out of the **** hole on the side of the motor, Which I believe comes from the impeller. Last season I ran in some shallow muddy back waters and after that she stopped pissing out of the side. Can that line somehow be cleared by compressed air or any tricks out there?? If not how hard is it to change the impeller if thats what would fix the issue. All help is appreciated.

Thanks CJ

drop your foot..change the impeller..before you put it back get a old piece of water hose and slide it onto the water tube going up into the engine and flush good..remove the t-stats and let the water flow...and yes some compressed air in the pee line can unclog it. and put a new impeller on every 2-3 years..also change the gear oil and inspect for traces of water intrusion.
