If water is coming out of the exhaust the the impeller is working, check to make sure your over board indicator hose is not clogged.

where is the overboard indicater hose located is that the inlet hose where the water comes in above the prop any help would be great i am a novice at boat motor repair i am however some what mechanically inclined.

also is water supossed to come out of the exshaust outlet or is there another location where it should come out.

As long as it's not a real old model there should be a tell-tale hose in engine cowling that has a stream of water coming out, usually on bottom right side of motor.
