"2000 Evinrude 15 hp 4-stroke. Impeller just replaced, hoses cleared. Pee stream at idle very low and at high rpms an arch. Mechanic states this is normal for this engine. How strong a pee stream is normal with a new impeller on this outboard? If weaker than should be, what else to look for as a cause? Thanks."

Thermostat. Cheap to replace and easy to remove and check. Just pull it out tie a string to it and a thermometer and stick them in a pan on the stove. Don't let either touch the side or the bottom of the pan and bring water to a boil. If the thermostat doesn't move before you get to 140 degrees toss it away and getcha a new one
