[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 488559, member: 3278"] [size=5] Ahhh, so you are an engineer now? That particular design has been in that engine since 1974. There are probably hundreds of thousands of those engines out there and running or worn out with that gasket still in them. In short, you did not discover why the gasket failed. Period. Pull the powerhead and you will see that the grommet on the water tube has melted and swollen shut. Probably from numerous overheats. This is restricting your water flow to the powerhead. This has been discussed in here a few times in the past. Photos are available as well. [/size] [/QUOTE]
