New to forum so if this has been asked before please just redirect me. I have a 2002 90 hp 2 stroke merc. I got the overheat buzzer the other day on my way to the dock. As soon as alarm sounded I cut the rpms down and alarm stopped. Cruised around at lower rpms no alarm. Back to 5000 rpms alarm sounds. Replaced impeller and thermostat. Same deal back on the water. Felt the discharge water and it was cool. Spritzed some water at various spots on the block and got no sizzle or quick evaporation. I get the feeling this could be electrical or lack of intake at high speed. I have not observed tell tale pressure being less at high speed however. Thanks in advance for your help
