- Hi All - 3.7l ran well for a couple of hours at 3200rpm, went to idle and then noted the engine got right up on the gauge, it was boiling out overflow tank. Turn it straight off and then used one engine to get back to shore.
- Have checked header tank and the gasket was okay.
- Pulled the sea water hose off at the heat exchanger and there is no water in there at all. I just cant see why it would have emptied all the water out of the line, thought there would be some water left in there.
- There are no leaks from the engine/hoses.
- The engine turns over fine, have not tried to re start the engine as yet but trying to identify what the issue could be.
Given the sea water line is empty does that mean it is a impeller that has failed?
If it is the impeller, does anyone have experience putting in a separate Jabsco impeller pump running on 12 volt and not using the one in the sterndrive?
If the impeller has failed what else do i need to check?
