1995 454xl. Rebuilt in 2014. 200 hrs. Tempature creeping up to 200 degrees when on plane. Tempature stays at 165 when running below 2000rpm. I replaced raw water impeller, did a tune up(plugs,wires,cap,rotor). Still heating up. The
elbows
were replaced April 2017 with original Crusader elbows. Question: IS it possible that the high dollar Crusader elbows have failed already??? I used my IR gun and the heat exchanger is about 50 degrees hotter than the other engine. The top of the elbows are about 20 degrees warmer than other engine.
