I think I found my problem overheating 
. No water is getting to the motor from my outdrive. There are some O-rings that need to be replaced between the SUSPENSION FORK and the intermediate housing. Its right below the hose connection that takes the water out of the outdrive to the motor. Someone told be to put a clear hose on the raw water elbow thats just inside the hull that leads to the brass tube that goes to the heat exchanger to see if more air than water is coming in. In fact, I pulled an O-ring out with my fingers today that was between the SUSPENSION FORK and the intermediate housing! I will do that tomarrow. My question is.......in simple terms ....where do I start to get to these areas. I know I drain all the oil out first. <br />I have a diagram of what goes where...Any help is appreciated. <br /><br />(I have checked all the easy fixes like the impellar,raw water strainer, silt/sand in heat exchanger,gummed up exhaust port holes and thermostat.)
