I have one of these engines. It is raw water cooled. Do you have a heat exchanger? Not enough water is being expelled with exhaust. Have you worked on the mixing elbow etc.?
No, we do not have a heat exchanger. Mine is raw water cooled as well. My mixing elbow rusted out a few years ago and I had to replace it. Here is a link to my project: thanks-dad.blogspot.com/2013/06/first-sail-of-season-and-few-more.html
