but even though it is hooked up to the hose. doesnt the water pump (impeller) need constant water or else it will get damaged? or is this hose putting water through the impellers also?
@400hpGTO technically, it's not sucked into the engine, it is pushed by either the impeller from lower unit, or by seawater intake pump, unless you have a closed loop cooling system. then it's all about the water pump. :)
That's how real I/O boats cool themselves. They suck water into the inboard engine block and it gets pushed out the exhaust. It's not in the cylinders, Pal.
your dads going to be pissed when he finds out u started his boat...
