[QUOTE="RBuffordTJ, post: 187400, member: 1385"] Pull the thermostat back out, drop the lower unit and back flush the head, blast water in the thermostat opening, it will push any debris back down and out, I like to put a clean bucket under the low unit to catch anything that flushes out. You can find sand, all kinds of crap that gets lodged up there, or pieces of the impeller if they were missing. If it is not peeing, its probably a simple blockage or you didn't get the water tube lined up when you put the lower unit back on. Bufford [/QUOTE]
