So this is my history with this boat. Bought it a year ago, took it out on the water, guy stopped dead infront of me, boat went from full throrttle forward to full reverse broke a shaft in the lower unit. Replaced the shaft and now I have a cooling issue, I replaced the raw pump with a used one, I had it cooling then it stopped, I replaced the impeller, had it cooling and then it stopped again, I back flushed from the raw pump back and seems to be clear. I tried to flush from water pump to the exaust but the thermostat holds me back. When I have it running the temostat seems to open up and steam flows from the exaust. Any ideas would be helpfull. It is a 1986 volvo penta 305 with a 270 dp setup. Can my earmuffs and water pressure just be so bad that it wont suck it up? Seems like the steam starts flowing around 180 -200. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
