Any idea's?

" sounds to me that the impeller is breaking apart, when that happens you may find pieces of rubber comming out. "

" So it's called the impeller! well it was actually looking like one flat stone of salt? it broke off compleatly and there is just a screw left, the engine is really new and in great condition? can this hole be blocked? or if i buy a new impeller will it be fixed? what is an impeller? is it just a vent to stop rubbish going up? if so then something else is wrong.

Thanks i still need advise if anyone can help me.

Rgds

" the impeller is your cooling

" the impeller is your cooling system.it pumps water through the engine , there is a post just a few above yours and it explains the funtion of the impeller, and the location. if you replace the impeller the water will begin to flow, and will come out the little hole (pee hole) "
 
" You'd better change the

" You'd better change the impeller before it fails and you have an overheat. Possibly the problem is not the impeller, but the water tube. You might want to take a wire or piece of trimmer line up the water hole, and you should also blow out the line with compressed air if possible. Don't screw with the cooling system. It's really important. "
