I would like to kno if my 02 90hp Johnson is runnin too hot? after runnin in the ocean at 5k rpms for about 10mins, my motor wouldn't restart after I turned it off.it would just wine and wine and turn over but not stay on. Wen I got back home about 2hrs later thanx to sea tow, it worked fine. and then today wen I had the earmuffs on it, I noticed steam comming off the drain water. And yet the cylinders were still touchable....its 90degrees in mia and I doubt it was condensation..any ideas? And no alarms went off

Need more info. 60 degree or 90 degree engine? Alarm beep when you turn key on? Only someone close to the motor with temp checker can tell if it is running hot.
