Just bought a 95' 6hp-2stroke (6msht). Starts and idle's fine but I'm getting very water coming from the telltale. Last and orig owner told me he had the watepump(impeller) changed out 2yr ago and he just used the motor once last yr. when he noticed a weak pee stream&water getting warm water when he shut it down

I so far have blow-in copressed air through the passages(not to mentioned dropping salt-away, vineagar mix to maybe dissvolve any salt-build up through the telltale nipple. I ck. out the t-stat and there was alot of salt-build up but i cleaned it up, tested the t-stat(opened up fine in hot water). I'm still getting weak drips and after a minute the cyl. head starts to get hot.

Does anybody know what i got going on here??

If there was alot of salt-build up at the stat area then I would think the rest of the cooling passages look the same
