What was this fix for?

[Lea]

Air intake was under water, so "air bubbling" into well (Hydro-air) didn't work. It was not an issue on most boats.

�� when I look at the plumbing on the back of my 04 198 it doesn’t make since to me wonder if mine is wonky too.

Easy enuf to tell. Fill livewell then turn on Hydro--air. If you see air bubbles, all is well. If not, check to see if intake tube top in the livewell is under water. I think it is called venturi, but I am old and forget!. Not all boats had the Hydro-air option, so yours may not be involved at all.

Could someone tell me what I should replace what I believe is the thru hull aerator on my 85 champion. I think this is the last part to fix before putting my tanks back in. I don't know alpt about how all those works but I need to learn.
