I have a 1997 Johnson 25 which has been running fantastic. However, the last two times I have taken it out I am experiencing the same, repeatable problem. Starts fine with a steady water stream at all speeds. After a short while the temp alarm sounds and it immediately starts running rough except at idle speed. It cools off and immediately it runs like a top again for about one minute. As soon as the temp alarm sounds it immediately runs rough again. I thought the steady water stream represented a cool engine? Thanks in advance for any help/comments.
