Person I got engine from said it hadnt run in 6-7 yrs. He obviously didnt ever flush it out, salt water. Alarm went off while using the flusher. Replaced water pump assy. Pumping more but still overheats. Water from Pee hole is very hot but water from foot isnt even warm. Starts easily and runs good. Any ideas .<br />Thanks
