Impeller was changed before the 2016 Spring Season.
Hello all - Thanks in advance for helping me through this issue. About middle of summer season I would randomly overheat (Typically after start up). The first time I thought I had some trash on the intake so stopped, reversed, went forward and then it immediately opened up and cooled back down. I thought it was a one time thing, but few weeks later it happened again, then it was almost every-time I took it out near the end of the season. I wrote it off to a faulty thermostat and just dealt with the short stop/start/reverse dance till I pulled it for the winter. Well I threw in a new thermostat a few days ago, threw the muffs on and it is still happening.
Does anyone have any ideas or thoughts that I could start troubleshooting?
