pee hole problem, 2000 merc 225

[Frank]

my pee hole gets clogged constantly.  just driving through weeds in open water is all it takes.  There has to be a way to stop this.  i used to have a 40 and this didnt happen.  any ideas

It shouldn't get clogged that easy. Usually only happens when I put my lower unit into the mucky bottom somewhere. Are you fishing a lot of algae-clogged weeds maybe? That can do it though it more often just covers up the intakes.
