OR... the pee hole water line could be pugged up. Try blowing air or water back through the pee hole. Or you could use a small wire to stick into this line to try to unplug it.



Something else, that could be tried. Take boat to a boat launch and running the engine to check for water at pee hole. Or, put "ear muff" on the engine at home and see what happens.

If thermostat is dry then water for sure ain't gettin to pee hole. Impeller installed backwards and now destroyed

Or maybe the impeller key was not installed and the impeller is not turning.
