Pee Hole on 175HP Black Max?

[dezmond]

Newbie with this motor and dumb question.

Is there a pee hole on a 1977 Merc 175HP Outboard?

If yes where? and if no does it come out at the prop?

Thanks. I am wanting to fire it up on the stand and see how she runs before it goes back on the boat.

Mine is a 2 piece cover with a stationary back plate, the tell-tail (pee hole) is about a 1/4 of the way up from the bottom, and through that backplate. I can't imagine your outboard doesn't have one, but yes either way water will exit through the prop.
