Hi folks,
Thank you for taking the time to read/respond to my question. 78’ Evinrude 15hp and find it is overheating. During warmup I have a good strong stream of water through the pee pipe. Then at some point it stops and the engine overheats. I have changed;
-New water pump in the lower end
-New rubber grommets at the top of the copper pickup tubes by power head removal
Could this be something to do with the thermostat or water jackets clogged so that when the thermostat opens the water cannot flow through the engine?
Thank you again
