Hi all - today I had the motor running in a tub of water and it took some time but I ended up cleaning quite a bit of sand out of the telltale hole. I did however notice this:
After I shut it off and start it again, when idling it takes quite a while for the water to start spitting out of the exhaust and the telltale.
Is it normal for no water to come out until the thermostat kicks open? The water is quite hot when it first comes out and cools off as it flows for a while. Just want to make sure this model is supposed to do this.
thanks.
