My very first motor did that. I think the water pump went out. It didn't have a tell tell on it. Crazy thing was I put it up running perfectly, then the next time I put it in the water and tried to crank it the thing wouldn't crank. So my buddy pulled the cowl while I turned it over. I had it almost running, when he screams STOP! STOP! I'm like, DUDE - I almost had it!!!

I then go back there to inspect and bend down only to see daylight through a hole in the side of the power head! SWEEEEEEEEEET! ::)
