The flusher is the metal plate type flusher TEM380010 (although I'd check the part number to make sure it's a plate type flusher as I've seen this P/N other places on the web as a muff-type flusher). the way it's used is it's place *underneath* the cavitation plate. There's neoprene on the opposite side. The hose tube/fitting tails off the exhaust snout that is on the bottom of the cavitation plate so the hose is directed away from the prop. The two metal brackets are secured to the plate flusher and have carriage bolts on them and wingnuts on the opposite end. The plate is pressed against the water intake screen on the bottom of the cavitaion plate and located against the exhaust snout. The two metal "arms" are swung abound and clamped on the *top* of the cavitation plate, securing it. barry |

if you run it in a tank, don't run it too long as the water
will get hot and over heat the engine unless you let a garden hose run while you are testing it. wrote in message roups.com. ... wrote: : The headphones like flusher probably won't work. : My dad had an old 90 HP Johnson and it had the water intake just above : the prop, in front of the "exhaust tail".

I know that for my evinrude I've used a huge garbage can, but I was wondering if there was something like you can use on newer lower units (of IO's, for example). It looks like the water intake is above the prop, and I don't think the same thing would work for both. Is there something easy to use? I can make this make more sense if needed. Depends on which engine? If it's the Super Seahorse 75 or similar type B lower unit. There was a special flush adapter made, that secures to the cavitation plate. Not sure where you might find one today. Might try some old time outboard mechanics or maybe E-Bay. I still need mine to work on the 62 Gale. |
