Andy-

Any recommendations for getting more water to flow into motor?

It seems that when the motor is trimmed to optimum spot, turning about 5200 rpm's the motor starts the over heat buzzer. When I go back to idle it cools down and I'm good to go again. Nothing is mounted in line with lower unit.

Is it worth having a temp gauge I can watch and adjust speed before the buzzer sounds
and if so send me a pm with price for gauge and what is required for hook up


Thanks,

Chris

have you changed the water pump and t-stat?
