    2000 Ficht- no water pressure on gauge

    New lower unit last year, gauge did not register any water pressure but I figured it was most likely the gauge and ran it cause I had good flow out the p-hole. Yanked 'er out of the snow drift today and put the new gauge in, still nothing, thought maybe I had a kinked line so I disconnected it at the barb and still had nothing. I had it on the muffs, insufficient flow, something in the barb? Any other thoughts on a quick fix? I have plenty of water flow out the p hole

    Re: 2000 Ficht- no water pressure on gauge (RUSTY63)

    yea, I remembered I had water flow at the gauge last year cause my boat was taking a leak all over my pants when I was at Guntersville, yanked the dash out n the lake and capped the line and left it that way all summer. Just thought I had a bad gauge. Makes my believe I must have sucked something into the intakes which has plugged it???? Heard there may be some open water here after 77 degree temps yesterday so I may try to get it in the water so I can run it at some rpm's
