Lately for water ski bindings we have been using hair conditioner. A little remains so taking off a tight binding is easier as well.Some use shaving cream, some a mild dish soap. Nothing is petroleum based!

I agree since without the engine running, the delta P is equal inside to outside. With it running, the delta P is less inside than out.

Our 95 was sucking air initially. It was the seal on the water filter cover. It does not take much to pull air rather than water and air will flow through holes that water may not leak from.

Really? i figured there would be a little bit of pressure inside that hose due to water just wanting the fill the cavity of the boat if the hose wasn't connected to the strainer.

It's a open system. The only pressure past the RWP is from restriction and head. Not much head since 27" equals 1 PSI.
