Hi everyone, hoping to get some info/advice, my 9.9 isn't pumping water up to the top and out the "p" hole. I've changed the water pump and housing, and still nothing is pumping any water up top. I dropped the lower unit and tried blowing air up the water hose and I'm not getting air out of either water outlet port (top or bottom) should i pull the plate off an inspect the water runners? Thanks for any help!
 
I probably would pull the engine off the outboard- this would allow you to inspect coolant passages in the motor as well as from the water pump. I had a 25 Suzuki with a portion of a broken off water pump fin lodged in the water passage just going into the motor.
