ok being its new to me- i went ahead and changed the water impeler and all gaskest....and the thermostat...
after starting in a 55 gallon drum of water-IT TAKES APROX 15 SECONDS TO SHOOT HEAVEY STREAM FROM WEE HOLE.
avg temp in a glass of water coming from wee hole with bakers thermometer reads 165 degrees------and quickly falls to 140 degrees......i guess im sensitive cause this hurts my hands-----pretty similar to my hott side tap faucet...
does this sound average to you pros---- im ready to take it to the lake-- but had to be sure first......i dont want a melt down...
you guys say you can put your hands on the head and it will be warm-to hott, but not scalled you....
i can to and it seems ok but rather hott to my touch......{DOESNT BURN ME}
SO AS LONG AS IT HAS A HEAVY STREAM- BETWEEN 140-165 DEGREES-- AM I SEMI SAFE TO GO RUN AND TEST IN THE LAKE...
ISTHE PEE HOLE STREAM A SURE FIRE EXAMPLE THAT ENGINE IS GETTING COOLANT FLOW??????? IT HAS STRONG FLOW AT IDLE- HEAVIER FLOW AT 2000 RPM.....MAX I WILL ALLOW AT HOME.
INTIAL STREAM AFTER STARTING HURTS MY HAND{15 SEONDS TO PEE} THEN QUICKLY DROPS TO 140 DEGREES
THANKS,,,SORRY FOR ALL MY LONG POST- BUT I TRY TO ADD AS MUCH INFO AS POSSIBLE IN OPENING POSTS...
