They are twin Merc 180s.
Anyone know?
Or is it possible that there is no such thing? I thought all motors
had this feature in order to run them out of water.
Thanks

You need a set of ear muffs to run water through the stern drive water
pump. Get them at a marine store or on line. Don't run the engines
without water.
A big Thank you!
Going to check out a retail boat store at Bethel Island tomorrow. They
should have them.

I tried the rectangular version first but they didn't seem to seal well
around the intake ports on my Johnson 25.
This cheaper version seems to work well.

The rectangular muffs are for big-boy outboards - not 25HP kickers, dummy.
