If anyone can Help, Please Do.
Got a 25 evinrude , water pump quit. i replaced it, IT being an 85
model, and the Pee Hole,Weep Hole,whatever, is barely dripping
water,BUT, water is Spurtin' Smooth out the Thing between the motor and
the Foot, and from the Pee Hole there is only Drips of Water which looks
like it is mixed with Oil ...
Milky Stuff . With LOTS of Steam.
If y'all need More info, let me know by e-mail .

Help with the Above Question ...
thanks

Ok, I'll take a shot at this...

I can only base this on my absolutely minimal experience with an old
Johnson '55. I would pull it apart again and re-check what you did.
Water should be flowing well out of the pee hole. Water coming out
between the motor and the foot should be no big deal, as long as you're
getting good flow at the pee hole. Probably you didn't get a good seal
when you reattached the lower end and water is escaping through that
seal. However, you NEED to find out why oil is mixing with the water
and coming out the pee hole. Did you re-grease the shifter shaft going
to the foot? Also, open the bottom screw in the foot. Oil will flow
slowly out of it if you only take out the bottom screw. Oil coming out
should NOT be milky white but oil colored. i.e. the same color as when
you put it in. If you're seeing steam, I'm guessing that the motor is
heating up to much and there's not enough water flow to cool it down.
This is a problem and leads back to the first step I mentioned...pull
it back apart and re-check what you did.

Hope this helps,
Jim

Thanks Jim, I did put the White Grease that came with the kit on the
spline.
Waiting on Dawns Crack to Check the other stuff as you suggested .
Thanks

My mechanic sez:
"The only place oil can come from is the lube in the lower unit."

Check to make sure you have the waterpump inpeller and shaft seals
installed correctly.

The other option is pretty grim. You have a hole in the "pee tube" and
need to replace the lower unit housing. You can check this by looking at the
oil in the foot. If there is water present, you have a real problem.

and I thank You also Capt.Frank ...
NO sign of oil in the foot, I drained it.
I am gonna RePull Da Foot some more Again ! hopefully I will find an
error on my part, Seal wise. This was my first attempt at pullin' Da
Foot an installing the water pump kit.
BTW, the barrel of water I had the foot in had NICE layer of oil
Floating around.
At least there was no water in Da Foot !
thanks ALL some more.
I will let Y'all know

One more possibility about the oil in your cooling water discharge -

You say you had the motor in a barrel (not using Mickey Mouse ears)? Your
normal exhaust will contain oil that has been mixed with the gasoline, and
not having been completely burned gets passed out with the exhaust. Soon
the barrel gets a good oil slick going, and the cooling water intake instead
of sucking up good clean water, is sucking up a oil / water mixture that
then shows up as a milky discharge at the pee hole.

The does not explain the steam part - that has to be another problem. You
might check the thermostat to see if it is corroded shut and unable to open
like it should. I have run into outboards here in the southern Chesapeake
that overheated because of corroded shut thermostats.
