    New Long Block

    Yes and No , I'll start with the no first No - Reving high while in the water is not a problem, but would be if on a hose (sort of). If on a hose it can burn the impeller with anything above 1500 or so rpm Yes - Reving high is the issue if (the big IF, and the sort of :unsure:) you have an...

    Cooling system

    My comment was to remove the hose coming from the pump at the thermostat housing. The hose comes from the pump, to the oil cooler and then to the housing. Remove the hose and "start the motor" , you should see water coming out of the hose. Since you back flushed including from the pump and...

    water temp

    Don't know if the one from AZ is the same as the marine, but it might be. The North American is 240 ohms to 33 ohms (cold to hot). Take the sender and place in a pan of water and heat it up while reading the meter with a thermometer. See if it comes out the same

    2016 H190 Aluminum to SS Prop question.

    Stainless props blades are thinner then aluminum so less drag, and they don't flex like aluminum does. If something is hit with stainless it can break the drive, but same hit with aluminum then it has a good chance to just be the prop. Current family load reaching 4000-4100 with 19, and going...

    5.7L Black Scorpion running rough after warmed up

    Thinking its starving for gas. Being able to let it idle for a short time and run good again for a short, I would start with the gas tank vent. Could be the tank is drawing a vacuum because the vent is clogged, or partly clogged. When it does this remove the gas cap and listen for air being...
