    Why do you ask?

    If the water pressure guage does not work there are several reasons that could cause this.

    If the overboard discharge is not (peeing) working it may be clogged with debris, use a 13/16 (spark plug socket or wrench) to remove the fitting and clean the debris.

    The same 13/16 spark plug socket or wrench will remove the thermo covers, they are located on the top of both cylinder heads.
