It's a 1996 mercury 30hp sea pro, serial #0G160859. The water pump is not peeing, checked the hoses and they aren't stopped up, dropped the lower unit and checked the water pump. Is this motor supposed to have a copper water tube or a coupler that fits on the housing? If it has the copper tube does it have a gourmet on top of the tube that goes to the bottom of the engine block?
Thanks for any help in advance.
