I have a 1988 Merc 100 hp. I recently got it fired up, after sitting for quite a while.
When it was running, on the muffs, there was no water comming from the tell tale, but the is from the hub.
I droped thelower unit to change the waterpump and the impelor was still in tact with no broken pieces.
I installed a brand new Quicksilver impelor and still no pee.
Now with out seeing any water from the tell tale, i have not let it run for more than 5 minutes.
How long does it take for the water to start flowing? At what temp does the thermostat open?
I have a manual, but can not find any info on the t-stat or cooling system.
Where should i check for a blockage?
Thanks.......

The tell tale hole was pluged. Cleared it and it started peeing right away.
