I think I got the hoses reversed on my 2002 Outback when reconnecting them after winterizing last fall. I installed a new impeller and put all the plugs back in, but when lowering my boat into the water and letting it idle for about 5 minutes for the first time this year, the temp gauge slowly got above 200 and I cut it off. It continued to climb until it maxed out on the dial.

Is the correct configuration to have the hose going to the transmission cooler connected to the bottom fitting on the water pump, and the hose that runs up to the top of the engine connected to the upper fitting on the water pump? I had them reversed. I hope I didn't damage anything. Anything I should check other than seeing if I burned up the brand new impeller (or will I just find out soon enough if I ruined something else)?
