water tube

[berdes]

Dropped the CLE lowers on my Merc Racing 2.4 EFI motors. The right rotation came out with the whole water tube still connected to the pump. Looks like a metal sleeve was used in lieu of the plastic usually connecting the pump to the water tube. Do I need to remove the power head, or can the tube be re-inserted or ??

Thanks

Reinsert

X2^....Reinsert but do not smash it into place or you will cut the upper ring on the rubber bushing/retainer.

Thanks, will give it a try.
