1988 Force 125hp Question

I am new boat owner picked up a 1988 20ft cc bayliner trophy.. I got home just going over I put the EARMUFFS on the motor right where the intake ports are on the motor turned water engine fired right up. question There are two holes on the close together isn't water suppose to come out of those holes when running see link for photo http://photobucket.com/boatmotor . could it be i dont have enough water pressure coming through the garden hose. the holes were wet inside with water and some water did spit out though just not a big stream coming out.

The impeller was just changed from the marina shop from the guy I bought the boat from

Those holes are pressure relief holes.The PR system is designed to divert excess water from the motor.
At idle you might see some water or not.Depends on if the spring/valve is stuck.
As long as it's pumping out the snout on the bottom and your not overheating.
Check the thermo switch on the head.Ground it out.You should hear the overheat buzzer(key on).J
