I fixed all that and i got the blubber hole spraying but it still gets very hot. i let it run to hot to touch and then watch it before it gets too bad but it still is hot enough to put a drop of water on it it boils the drop of water. Somebody told me its probley the thermostat but i don't have any idea where its at or how hard to change. any help from the many motor guys on here is very greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
