Overheatng Problem

[spareparts]

I'll make it a little more tempting, its 75 and sunny here right now, and just the other day, I caught 8 trout from the dock, kept 5, big fish was 24", 3 released at 13 1/2 ( 14 inch minimum on specs here in SC). "Nothing could be finer than to live in Carolina"

sweet:

i had the same problem and ended up changing the engine to a v6 4.3, uses the same multiplication in the outdrive. however you can:

- take end the caps off the heat exchanger and clean the lines with a thin wire brush.
- check the raisers gaskets and make sure they are metal with close passage paper gaskets
- check the timing, the 470 is very sensitive if off timing just a little bit.
- make sure all hoses are straigth and disconect the hose that comes from the outdrive and make sure the drive's impeller is sending water out.
- replace radiator cap

good luck with that engine.!!!
