F150 TXR: how strong should indicator stream be??

2006 F150, my first Yamaha. Previous owner had replaced water pump impeller at some point. I replaced it when I bought the engine. It's a solid stream, but not very forceful like my (sold) Honda 225. I checked the tube back to the block and it's clean. Engine does not overheat, so I'm thinking it's just a characteristic of the Yamaha? Worst scenario is there may be a piece of an old impeller in there somewhere. Opinions?
 
Yams are weak pissers. Tell tale water has to go through a fuel cooler and in some cases also a rectifier/regulator before it exits the motor. Not much energy left by the time it gets to the port.

If your motor does not sound the over temp alarm you are fine.

Jerryjerry05 is an assshole.
