Started my 2004 ar230 for the first time after a long winter sleep. Started the engine ( started quick!) then turned on the hose, after inspecting the engine compartment which looked good and dry I jumped down to see the normal water coming out of the pumps and exhaust but for the first time noticed water coming out of the intake grate. Is this normal or am I being paranoid ??????? Thanks in advance
 
I bet if you raise the bow a little all of the water will come out of the jets.

I am assuming that gravity was the source of the water that was coming out of the intake grates.
 
I'm pretty sure that's normal.
 
I assumed so just got nervous, glad to see I have a place to run to for answers!
