I am considering purchasing this engine for my 15' Whaler. The motor compression tested perfectly, lower unit looks good etc. My question...When running it on ear muffs and a garden hose (tell tale was strong) the water seemed very warm. Not scalding but similar to the temperature you'd wash your hands with when using warm water. The motor had been idling for about 5 minutes. Is this something to be concerned about? I need to let the owner know today if I am buying...any help is greatly appreciated!

Sounds right to me. The motor should have warmed up by then.
