It came almost to the bottom of the anti-cavitation plate, above the
cooling water inlets. If I were on the muffs, it would only come as high as
the inlet. I don't understand why an increase over that is necessary.

The water level must be above the impeller. When you are on muffs the
water is pushed up to the impeller. When you are in the tank the
inpeller must be submurged in water.

Well, ****. Learn something new every day.

The water was almost up to the bottom of the anti-cavitation plate. A good,
healthy stream was coming out the pee hole. The engine ran normally, with
no overheating warnings or anything for about twenty minutes, to insure the
gas with the stabilizer got into the engine.

I guess we'll see in the spring. I went to the Yamaha site to buy a manual.
Couldn't find one for my year. They show only 2005 and earlier.

Bill, Dave, you guys sell service manuals for 2008 Yamaha F150's?

That would be Bill - I have enough on my plate keeping up with
Johnson/Evinrude/Mercury.

Please do NOT buy a Clymer or similar after market manual.

If water was coming from the pilot hole (I refuse to call it a pee
hole), it was above the impeller.

Oh, come on! Now you're just making perfect sense. You need to
interject a bunch of third grade like insults and vulgarities. Some
think that it makes you believable even if you don't know anything.

It's what it's called. The pilot can tell if the water pump is
working, hence pilot hole.
http://yamahaoutboardparts.com/showthread.php?t=4656

Shop manual calls it such:
http://books.google.com/books?id=wkE...GJL96RnzAodg4w

It's actually a technical term, so I'm sure you've never heard it
called such.
