[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 469477, member: 3278"] [size=5]Choke being out in order to run has zero to do with an overheat. Looked at the video. A previous owner has added an overboard indicator hose to the engine. From the looks of it the normal water exit has a bit of a reduction of flow but the overboard indicator stream is nice and strong. Steam.....remember that in cooler water you will always have steam. Even down here in warm water I get it after an on-plane run. Super hot exhaust gases and inner exhaust surfaces that the cooling water is flowing across to remove heat from the parts. That creates steam! The engine sounds super! Well done and no doubt a good learning experience! Why not add your location to your signature so we can see where you are boating? If you like the old engines there are antique outboard (vintage too) groups that hold regular events all across the country. Engines are usually for sale at them all the time. [/size] [/QUOTE]
