Pisser hose got disconnected from inside - not shooting water. HELP!

I noticed that the amount of water being ejected from the “pisser” orifice was way too weak. About one-third I’d say. I have nylon thread to undue any type of plug up (seaweed), but still never got it to be near normal. That was not the issue. I needed to investigate.

When I returned to my slip,I tilted the engine up and attached the flushing hose (fresh water) and noticed fresh water was coming out of the pisser hose (weak) and ALSO draining from bottom of cowling (close to pisser) that dripped back into the water (not spraying in engine). I thought that maybe the rubber hose to the pisser discharge orifice must have a slit in it or had cracked or something. I reached underneath and checked the rubber hose connected to the pisser. When touched, it fell off the nipple. Obviously it was loose. My fat fingers cannot reach the hose and put it back on. I'm sure that's my issue.

Any suggestions? I do not have a trailer for haul-out (I have a slip in harbor) so I hoping someone can tell me how attack this issue. Take cowling off?

Thanks.
 
Hi,
Is yours an 225AK model?

I don't work on these but wanted to offer the parts diagrams so that you might be able to figure out what to do.

The link below is of the mount case (page E-6-10) and I think item 49 is the pisser hose.


The note in bold font next to item 49 directs you to reference page F-3-20 (extension case)...⁹[the link below


See item 30 and note that it is next to the bold font directing you back to page E-6-10 indicating that it plugs into item 49.

It looks like it might not be very easy to get to like you said.
Might possibly need to remove the right water jacket cover (item 19 on page E-6-10)

Hope I didn't confuse you.

Good luck.
 
I haven't had it happen to me yet, but scuttlebutt is if/when that hose comes off the pisser (apparently not that unusual for those hoses to split) and that water can't drain from under the hood fast enough, all of the (very expensive) onboard electronics will be treated to a dose of sea water. Not a good situation at all.

Point being, that's a situation you want to deal with RIGHT NOW. Do not run it until that's fixed.....
