On the leading edge of the drive, right above the lower init (prop shaft) bulge, will be a small hole, maybe 0.10 inches. Like the previous post said, you might have a piece of wood or other debris stuck in it.

it prob got disconnected between the lower and upper unit raise your drive all the way and see if there is a rubber connector comming from the upper that plugs into the upper half of the lower unit The speedo water pickup hole is about 3 inches above the reg water pickup on a lower unit with low water pickups
