"I have a low volume of water

"I have a low volume of water coming out of the weep hole. I tried to change the impeller but I was given the wrong impeller by the dealer. The old one still looked good, so I reassembled it. I'm thinking that I have some salt build-up in the passages. Prior to reassembling, I tried to force some Salt Away up the cooling tube (which mates to the impeller housing). I didn't want to do too much of this as I was concerned that I might force some water into the cylinders.

What can I take apart to clean the passage ways?"
 
I would try a heavy duty pipe

I would try a heavy duty pipe cleaner up the weep hole sometimes salt will clog the opining. I have done this while the engine is running this will help to push the salt out.
