I purchased a used one with extremely low hours. I submerged the lower unit in a 30 gal drum of water, covering the water intake holes by several inches. When it started, water almost immediately started coming out the tube (pisser). After awhile the water slowed and pulsed intermittently. The water never stopped flowing, pressure just got weak then strong. There was also water coming out near the lower portion of the yoke which was cool/cold. The water coming out of the tube was very hot to the touch. Is this normal for this engine? Other than reving it up one time, all operation was done at no more than a fast idle.
