Forgot to re-open the main valve to the lake, when I closed it to run it on a hose. Trashed the impeller. Replace the impeller and rebuild the pump, put it on tonight but it was running hot. It normally runs around 120 or so but when I was running it at 4000 rpm she would get close to 150-170.
Came home and took the thermostat off, and the water was steaming coming out of the manifold. Stupid me, with all of the hoses off, I turned it over to see if it was pumping water from the raw water pump and 190° water pumped out of the internal water pump and onto my leg.
This at least let me know that water is flowing in there.
I only found 2 little pieces of the impeller in my tstat housing. It’s an ‘86 salt with Supratrapps. My next move is to take them off to see if maybe it is blocking it at the exit??
When I would slow down and run idle it would cool down. Last year, i could run it that hard and it only get up to 135-140.
Any thoughts??https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190612/70d6a6555cf45b245cdc54c7276e9280.jpg
