Came back today and went to flush the engines.
Water is coming out the bottom of the engines but not the spitters on the side. This has never happened.
Please help if you have any insight.

Thanks.

@Collarman likely water pressure or flow rate, but provided you are not getting an overheat warning, it is likely not something to worry about.

There are a number of posts where members report not seeing water exist the “pee holes” while conducting the flush procedure.

Just a thought, if I flush with just the garden hose I will get flow out of the pisser, if I use the Salt A Way canister I do not get flow out the pisser because of a decrease in water pressure.
