I have ordered a new thermostat, thermo...

    overheating - looking for a cause

    Compression is good. I've pulled the head. Freshwater run only. Isn't there a different cover I need to pull where the water first comes into the block?

    on the o-ring, it looked like it was one part but it had a circular shape within a tear drop shape, which matches the channel it sits in. is it actually two o-rings, one inside the other? the tear drop follows the contour of the gear box. the circular one seals off the opening where the gears...
