1. Change motor oil 2. Change gear oil 3. Change impellor. This way you have some kind of maint. baseline. Those 3 things are pretty easy to do yourself. |

If the one pick up is feeding the inner cooler and the motor it could be, the water is going to take the path of less resistance, which would rob your motor.
