Have you ever seen this?

[corsair23]

An OMC Drive spewing water only out of ONE side of the " tattle-holes ", while just moving along slowly?

Is this normal? I suspect that the waterpump in my Drive is on the way out. Ive had a couple of instances of mild over heating. Have removed the Waterpump from the Engine, and its like BRAND NEW. Lucky, cause I dont think I'll ever find a replacement.

There will be no problem finding a replacement impeller for the pump in the upper gearcase.

Ayuh,.... When the impeller fails, the exhaust is runnin' Dry, which burns up the rubber parts in the exhaust system, 'n the shutters fall apart, droppin' into the drive, restrictin' the idle relief ports...

So,....... Ya, you probably need More than just an impeller....
