Most likely your pickup point is on the front of engine- right above the cavitation plate- maybe a little higher. Run you finger down the V part of lower motor and you should feel an indention- that is where the water pressure is picked up - most likely ran over a piece of wood and stopped up hole- FORGET YOU OWN A DRILL - take a small drill bit, operate by hand and slowly twist into hole- might take a littel while, but guarantee you it will work. That is what happened to mine. Took about 20 minutes, but cleared out. Good luck.
