15 HP Mercury Cooling System Easy Question

JasonEFlood

Hi,

I have a new 15Hp Mercury Bigfoot outboard. This is a simple question. When I was connecting the gear and acceleartor cables, I disconnected what is a water house.

So at the back of the engine is a larger cable that feeds the indicator stream - but just before it goes into the indicator it T's off with a 1 third the capacity cable - that is about 1 and a half foot long.

This I must have disconnected - it too pumps water.

Does anyone know where it is supposed to go?

I've changed engines - from a 9 to a 15 which did not have this T off, and am usually ok with this sort of stuff - but just cant see the nipple it should connect to. Any ideas would be most helpful.

I'd just feel a dope bringing it back to the shop, plus all the hastle of doing that for this simple thing.

Have a guess if your not sure - Ideas Please?
