I know i'm about the millionth person with an overheating issue, but i couldn't find any with a problem at idle. I got the boat out a couple days ago from storage and decided to try summerizing it myself. Got all the plugs in and ended up with one small hose clamp leftover (which i believe is for the heater so i am not to worried about it) Fired it up got no water and overheated. Got into the impeller housing saw the impeller was bad put in a new one, and fired it up with a hose jammed in to the intake on the other side of the vdrive and it ran fine. Headed to the lake today got in no problem ran for maybe 10 minutes got to where i wanted to start wakeboarding and overheated, let sit to cool down started again and it started to cool down got up to speed again and seemed fine. Started wakeboarding no problems until at idle it would overheat then we would start trolling and it would cool down get up to speed for wakeboard and would run great at 160. Stop again idle for a couple minutes and it would heat back up a couple of times it ran fine at idle but the majority of the time it overheated any suggestions? Thanks
