I am looking to buy a 9.9 Evin

I am looking to buy a 9.9 Evinrude 1985 model E10RCOM. I tested it last night and at first saw water streaming indicating water pump was working. It took awhile to warm up as the motor had been sitting for over a year. After acouple of minutes the jet stopped and the water continued to dripped. Engine did not seem to be hot. Also when I pulled the motor of of the tub a white greasy flow come out of the water intake and prop area. Any ideas and cost to fix. Thanks in advance

"a thorough gearcase re-seal

"a thorough gearcase re-seal job,should cure both prob....but,i would suggest having it checked out by a boat shop,as gearcase needs to be pressure checked.it is probably due for the re-seal and water pump kit."
 
What you are looking at may we

What you are looking at may well be normal. A little bit of dirt will block the water indicator. Running a motor in a barrel will usually show the oily discharge. So if you are buying a used motor always install a new water pump impeller( it simply is a must do ). Have the lower unit pressure tested.

Took the lower end off and impeller looks fine. Fired her up in a tub and she purred for 30 minutes. I gues I am not used to 2 strokes. Thanks to all for the advice. She ready for her maiden voyage to catch some trout
