Just bought a 75 with the gm straight 6 (not sure what horsepower) . The motor was totally rebuilt and has 25 hours on it. Took it out and it immediately started to get hot. So I now have the out drive torn apart as it was not pumping water to the engine. I pulled the impeller and stuck a different one in it from a spare pump. I noticed right away the difference. The old one could easily be turned inside the pump by hand. The new impeller was very hard to turn. Could this indicate that the impeller was bad and this was my overheating issue?
