Hevishot seems to have been mia for a bit, so i'll ask the forum.
New to me XR6. Allegedly serviced in 6/24. Hooked to hose and couldn't get it to peeing until i went back and pressed the "ears" against intake. Once i did that it would pee at idle. Wouldn't if i didn't hold ears. Increase rpm's and it would pick up. I shut it off thinking I just need to put in water. Launch and crank, still no pee at idle. Increase rpm, kick into gear and I get a stream. Increase rpm and stream increases. Factory gauge read from 5-15psi. Is that normal? If not, first thing to look at be replacing impeller? I've had a lot of boats...never had one that was slow to pick up water. Had a couple that wouldn't pick up any water...but never one that was slow.
The harder I practice, the luckier I get.

An XR6 has to get to running temp before you will get a good stream out of the pee hole.
I had much rather be tried by twelve than carried to my grave by six!!!!

Hevishot removed my automatic oiler on my xr6 and i do remember him saying those motors are designed to run a little hotter than most and as stated above will have to reach a certain temp before you get a solid stream. I just replaced the water pump on mine and the question i have is how hot is the water coming out of the pee hole supposed to be. Mine has a good stream when at running temp but the stream is very hot to the touch When i got mine peeing off the hose the other night, I said the same thing. It was hot hot.
The harder I practice, the luckier I get.
