[QUOTE="NCJonboater, post: 187280, member: 5155"] I have a 96 evinrude 8 hp that gets very hot around the head. It runs good for a couple minutes then sputters and smokes at w.o.t. I replaced waterpump housing, impellor, thermostat. When ran on muffs it doesn't take long before the head gets so hot you can't touch it for a second or two without getting burned. I think there may be a blockage not allowing water to flow properly enough to cool motor. Anybody ever run into a similar situation. Or have any good advise? [/QUOTE]
