How do you clean out water passage on merc 500outboard motor?

How do you clean out water passage on merc 500outboard motor?
Most all outboards use some sort of "mickey mouse ears" that you attach to your lower unit water pick up right? There is a attachment that you can buy that holds soap or whatever you want to flush with. When you turn the garden hose on, the detergent is fed into the engine along with the water. The first time i saw one of these it reminded me of a typical attachment that you would use to spray liquid fertlizer etc,etc. on your yard.I am sure you can call any local boat shop and they would direct you where to get one if they do not have one in stock.There are lots of "flushout"chemicals on the market you might want to look into.
