Water out of weep hole
 
Just wondering if I should be concerned or not,
I have an alpha one gen 2 outdrive.
Just did an impeller change as well as oil and seals in lower half of drive. So I put the lower unit all back together, and when I'm running it I notice that there is a little stream of water coming out of the weap holes or the drain holes, whatever you want to call it above the cavitation plate. That might be totally normal, it's just something that I have never noticed. I am running the boat on muffs, and the boat has thru transom exhaust so exhaust going through the hub.

Thanks in advance,

Nick

I know this is a very old thread but I'm hoping to bring it back to life. M

It’s a drain hole, so yeh, it’s normal.
