    Re: Need some Help/Advice

    Probably got a piece of junk in the end of the pee tube that you can't see. I had this happen to me while fishing the KY Lake grass several times this year.

    Here's what I did to fix it: first, straighten our a hook, next (if you're trying this at home) hook up your hose and turn the motor on. Finally, take the hook and run it in and out of the tube. Should clear the problem right up.

    I put a small tube in the pee hole..and water will go in it..for quite a while.but it will not drain out the bottom of the water line where is connects to the lower unit. And when i try to put water up the water line at the lower unit, it will not com out the pee hole.

    Pull your thermostat and put under the hot water faucet then the cold water faucet. Should open and close. Calcium deposits will build up. A mild acid will remove the calcium, or replace thermostat. If you run the river a lot you will also get a gunk build up in the discharge tube. Remove tube and just take a coat hanger and rod it out like cleaning a gun barrel.
    (Bar Keepers Friend is a mild acid cleaner you can use to thermostat)

    A buddy had that problem and I straightened out a piece of bailing water and did the ram-rod trick up the tell-tale hole while on the muffs. A couple of minute pieces of gravel came out and the stream was restored.
