1992 150XR6 0D097172, posted before about my overheat issue once I get on plane, changed the water pump (whole kit) no change. Noticed water leaking down the front of the midsection this time when on the muffs so I'm guessing based on what I can find that either the powerhead gasket or adapter plate gasket are leaking so the powerhead has to come off. I'm not going to do it myself, what's a ballpark fair price to have it done. My mechanic retired and moved so I'm going to have to bring to someone else.
From what I can tell this also makes sense given the fact that I could idle around with no overheat and only got the alarm shortly after getting on plane, right?
