Engine Wont Flush

[Jason Talley]

Hello everyone!

Thank you in advance for any advice you are able to provide.

I have a '14 AR192. My neighbor just bough a '17 AR210 and has had a great time with it. However, he went to flush the port engine after an outing yesterday and the water is not flowing through at all. There is some positive pressure in the line that prevents the water from leaving the connector.

I attempted the flush on the starboard engine with no issues. I was even able to suck decent air flow through the hose with my mouth on the starboard flushing connection but not with the port.

We didn't notice any issues on the water and the engines both seemed to pee with no problems so I assume there is a clog from the flushing valve to the y connector.

which of the two hoses at the y connector are from the flushing port? The red one or the larger one?

Im not sure how to remedy the problem or sure if this is actually the issue.

Thanks!

Have you watched buckbuck video in faq about how the cooling water flows?

Do you get any water coming out near the exhaust?

I'll bet the hose is pinched somewhere between the flush connector and the Y on the water intake. Follow the hose back from the flush connector to the Y and verify.

On my boat it is the red hose.
