Attach standard timing light to #1 cylinder (Highest driver side cylinder) . Have some one else run the boat at full throttle in the water and verify timing advance setting using the marks indicated on the flywheel at the pointer located in the right front of the flywheel. Better done in the evening for better visibility. Believe your motors calls for 26 degrees advance but I run it a 24 to save the old girl. 1984 235 needs to run 89 octane at a minimum and like high test all the more unless you have the low compress head gaskets which is unlikely as they are getting harder to find anymore.
P.S. You can also try just pulling the thermostats out and running it that way to see if they were the problem is as well. Kamikaze

I believe if you read the book for you motor it will say run high octane just stay away from the ethenal. look for the stiker on the pump that says might contain 10% ethenal if i does don't put it in. but I might not really matter but why take a chance. changed water pump yesterday redoing wires today they were really bad hope to be back on the water by tomarrow maybe this evening

Normally no - is it peeing water with good pressure? Are you sure you got the water tube mated to the pump output? if so, you probally messed up the exhaust gasket on the lower unit and its leaking.
If it were me I'd drop the lower unit and verify - better safe than sorry. Kamikaze
