    Mercury 150HP Four Stroke Flushing Connection-gctid815476

    Recently had an issue with water spraying through the vent holes in the flushing connection cap while running the motor. After a little research and taking a look at the system, I figured it was a failed or stuck check valve. I took the check valve out and rinsed it in fresh water while cycling the spring. Some granular debris came out. Not sure if it was from the marina water system or Long Island sound. Reinstalled with new hose clamps and all is well. System flushes and the check valve works while running.

    Just thought I'd post in case anyone else saw this problem.

    You may have had small criitters making a nest in there, it happens a lot.
