So after reviewing some older post on here I made an adaptor with a ball valve to hook up the water intake on my boat. I have the plunger type but never felt comfortable with it.
Anyway I have 2 questions for you guys:
1- When I turn the water on before I start my boat it seems to be pushing water of the impeller housing? Once the boat is running its fine. Did I hurt anything by doing that or is that normal?
2- Anyone have an issue with your water hose being sucked flat? I seemed like as my engine heated up it would suck the hose flat. This is only at idle I never revved the engine up.
