Just wanted to say one thing before you take that outboard to the shop,I have had problems with carpenter bees,they think your water drian is a perfect home,More than once i have had to take the hose off from the head to the part where it drians off into the lake and clean nicely packed mud house out of the drian hose,happen alot in the summer,and one of my last trips out to willard last fall the little sucker got me again,just take the top off the motor and diconect it from the power head and see if you have a stream of water coming out if so the whole outlet hose is probabley full of a little bees house.If you store your boat outdoors and the water was coming out on your last trip,check the hose before you take it in.its happened to me at least once or twice a year.This doesnt happen in the winter but have had the problem first thing in the spring.
