    I believe most of it will. I would want to replace that impeller for sure. Those are some nasty Chucks in there. I would definitely flush it out well while I had the foot apart to change the impeller/ water pump

    Vet, look like you ran that motor in the parking lot. With the foot off you can flush upward through the water tube and then flush back through the thermostat opening before you install a new one. Do it both way many times.

    I would want as much of that out as I could. I had a motor that would overheat occasionally. Drove me crazy trying to find out what was causing it. Found a blown up umpeller all through the water jacket. I used a power washer to knock a good deal of it out of the block

    Yep, that'll do it. Glad to see you found the issue.

    I watched an advertisement for a tunnel hull with a jet running skinny. That boat had to be skimming the bottom. Scary stuff
