I AM ABOUT TO LOSE MY MIND !!!! 88 25' sea ray 92 or newer mark v block ( i looked up the numbers on the block and thats what i came up with ) with thunderbolt ignition,fresh water cooled ,bravo II drive. i bought this boat at an estate auction and have no history on the boat or when it was repowered. the boat overheated on the muffs in the driveway. i pulled the raw water pump and the impellar was in a bizllion pieces !!! i put in a new impellar and back on the muffs the temp never rose above 160 degrees. i did back flush the power steering / oil cooler and the heat exchanger !!! i launched the boat and above 2000 rpm the temp rapidly climbed to 220 , dropped the throttle back to neutral and the temp dropped back down to normal . i can run the boat all day at just under 2000 rpm and it will stay cool. as i said i know no history so i tore it apart and replaced the thermostat , coolant circulation pump . i pulled the risers and although they did not look bad i soaked them in muriatic acid and they came out clean as a whistle. the boat did not have an expantion tank on it so i installed one however it does not appear to be transferring coolant back and forth but coolant is bubbling over and being pushed out the cap when it gets hot . could the cap be an issue ? oh ya and it still overheats !!!! i considered the fact that i might have a bad head gasket but there is no water in the oil , my plugs look brand new and there is no excessive exhaust smoke when she is on land . i pulled the line coming from the raw water pump to the heat exchanger and ran the motor i had what appeared to be good flow and it appeard to increase as i throttled it up !!! i have been told that the line coming through my intermediate housing might be pinched ??? the boat has a mascerator and tommorow i am going to attach the raw water intake hose to the seacock thru hull fitting for the mascerator and run it that way and see if that changes anything. anybody got any other thoughts ???? this is my first fwc cooled boat , the local marine mechanic recommended using dex-cool 50/50 coolant so that is what i have been running it on.
