I have 1988 Bayliner Cierra Convertible with a Volvo Penta 5.7 King Cobra and need to know how to check if water is cooling engine. Is there steps to check to make sure water is going to the engine before I take it out on the water and overheats. At my first test start up it idled and ran fine for about 10min and the temp gauge went up to 175. When we cut the engine off it was making a weird sound near the engine, like water gurgling or something. So I just want to check and make sure its getting water correctly to the engine..Can someone please tell me what to check and how to check it?
