I just bought a used Suzuki DT8C and was running it in a bucket of water. I believe its a 1997 model. Anyways, where does the cooling water exit the outboard? It seems to have a pee hole, but only jets of steam are coming out of that. Does that mean that I will burn my motor out if I run it? Is there something I need to do to fix this? Thank you for your time!

Yes a olid stream of water needs to come out, you need to change the impeller and not run it at all untill you have replaced it ....
