[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 347041, member: 3278"] Okay, at this point the only option for you is to pull the gearcase and check. Make sure the pump outlet lined up with the water tube that leads to the powerhead properly. Sometimes this can be the culprit. The grommet can be caught and folded over, etc. Since you seem to believe it is running hot it may be a good idea to check compression since the engine was run pretty hard with minimal water. Won't hurt. [/QUOTE]
