"Hi there!
Bought a 1974 Bayl
"Hi there!
Bought a 1974 Bayliner Saratoga and have not been able to track down cause of engine overheating. Changed thermostat, water pump impeller, rodded through the heat exchanger to ensure no blockages, checked the exhaust manifold risers for blockages or restrictions, changed the rad cap, checked timing, inspected all the hoses and even installed a clear section of hose in the raw water pump supply line to ensure adequate cooling water supply. I can cruise all day at about 3200 RPM but as soon as I try to get it up on full plane it overheats, right now...
I haven't been able to use the boat for it's purpose of weekend cruisin' and am startin to lose the love. HELP!!!"
