Hello All,
I just picked up an 05 Launch SSV 22 GG, but on it's third time out noticed the temp rising and once it reached 210 decided it was time to shut it down. I pulled it out and checked the intake grates and they were clean. So next is the impeller, but just wanted to get some advise on how you all are getting in that area to change it out. Are you taking the exhaust off? Are you taking the engine cover completely off or just disconnecting the strut and holding it up at a 90 degree angle? I am a little more than a novice replacing impellers, starters, plugs, wires, carbs, on other older inboards, but this is my first vdrive with all the options.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sluggo
