Slqfisher (11/21/2007)I didn't ant to buy a used one either but they don't make them new. I ordered itfrom a boat yard in Ga.
:banghead:banghead:bangheadI searched and searched..couldn't find one new either.

Another thought...remove the water hose that goes through the transom (inside the boat) connect a hose there and check the water flow. You might have to remove the thermostat. Also check the water flow coming out of the water pump (engine water pump) to the engine if possible. Make sure the belt is driving the engine water pump. Hope one of our recommendations help ya. Something else..put cups on the lower unit turn on water, remove the hose going to the engine water pump, start and run for a MINUTE or TWO and see if the lower unit pump is in fact supplying water to the engine water pump.
