Hey everyone new to the forum. Working on my dads boats today. Replace spark plugs, Thermostat, all gaskets, New impeller pump ( old one rotted away) and Fresh new oil/ Filter change. But the boat starts just great and sounds amazing But the it is overheating. Temp gets above 180 and White smokes comes out of the exhaust under the stern. I have seen threads for possible blown head gasket. BUT i am doubt of it being that. the engine just sounds to good for it to be that. So if anyone could give me some input i would appreciate it. I do have experience with car engines and figured Marine engines are basically the same design with minor changes for water use. Thanks everyone for your future advice.
