[QUOTE="Zum, post: 143986, member: 349"] Good read above my post. Umm,you say off a garden hose.(sometimes not the greatest flow) Are you running the outboard at wide open for any length of time? Normally you shouldn't,atleast for not that long with a hose. You probably will get better cooling when running the outboard on your boat,not just because of the wind/air but better water flow than with a garden hose. 140-150F is pretty hot. [/QUOTE]
