Well guys, I got the boat and took the cowling off and disconnected the hoses from the pump and ran a weed eater line up and down the lines. Got it to where they were all clear and I could even blow air down through the tube and suck air back and forth through the intake. So I put it all back together and hooked the muffs up to it and turned the water on.
She started peeing a stream better than I do.
Thanks for all the advice and confidence y'all had that I could get it workin again.

Awesome. Man made machines.....so they are always repairable. Sometimes easier than other times. I'm glad you found something and it's all better now.

Good job Steve. I figured as much since it didn't overheat when you were fishing. If I let mine sit for longer than a couple weeks I get little spider cocoons in the outlet fitting. Usually they blow out but sometimes they need help.

Some bugs really seem to like boatgas fumes / water combo. Many boat motors get plugged in short time with bugs or like what fred described. It could of gotten some moss or algae in there.

Glad you got it fixed, Steve. Bees like to build their nest up there. I'm sure that was not the case with yours because you use it so much, maybe crud. We care and we share.

Saw keep that weed eater line on the boat. I used to keep a 14ga copper wire on board. Sometimes mud dobber bees like to get up in there and clog it up. Have had to use it out on the river now and then.
