I have a over heating 351 /omc
I have a over heating 351 /omc selectomatic...put another unit on and still over heats...installed a complete waterpump kit per manual instructions..still over heats..runs at 180 with the garden hose hooked up at the fitting on the starboard outside location..with the boat in the water with the engine not running i pulled off the inlet hose from the nipple and water flows in very slowly...start the engine and the level drops and burps up about 4 inches every now and then....with the garden hose it comes up 4 inches with a steady flow ...the screen on the bottom of the unit is clean...this is a salt water boat..any ideas?
