What are you using to run it? Muffs or tub?

Muffs

Try a tub, I once had a Mercury that just WOULDN'T pump when using muffs, no matter how well it looked like i had it sealed, no problems in a tub though.

If there is no blockage (like you have proved) and the pump is in correctly and the water pickup pipe is located there isn't much else it can be.

Make sure its sunk properly into tub too.
