My motor starts and runs fine for 10-15 minutes then slows and runs ruff. I noticed that there is white smoke and water coming out of the exhaust. What's wrong?

Sounds like it is overheating. When was the last time the water pump was serviced?

I have a good stream of water coming out so I figured the water pump was ok. It has been a few years since I replaced the pump.

Buy the OMC kit, it has some mods, that help this engine cool. Temp sensor should have tan/blue stripe pigtail. The temp sensor with tan only should have been replaced.
