Hello guys I am new here and want to try and get your opinion on what the issue is on my motor. I just went down to Oklahoma and purchased a 1987 Pontoon boat because the ones around the Wichita area were pretty crappy that I found for the 5000 dollar range. Anyway I drove 3 hrs to get this boat and the actual boat was in awesome shape with new deck, carpet, and upholstery. But when we went to start the motor it started right up and we were waiting for the water to come out of the pisser or whatever you call it. It was not coming out so we shut it down and tried to see if it was clogged and so we tried again and nothing and then I see water coming out of the exhaust just a little bit, so I pulled the lower unit oil drain out and you could tell there was water in it. So I kind of took a gamble and am hoping that it is just a bad seal and needs a new water pump. I would really like your guys help to maybe let me know where I need to start to figure out what is wrong. I know probably tearing the lower unit apart but just want to see if there is something else that I can check before doing this. I am not a boat mechanic by any means but I have tore a lower unit apart before to replace the prop shaft that I had bent and ended up taking it in to the shop to have them put it back together so that I could make sure that it was all put together properly. Please help me! any help or response would be great.
