    emm overheat

    Just got the motor back from service and one of the problems listed was an emm overheat. Can anyone shed some light on this. I dont think the emm should overheat.

    Re: emm overheat (thecapnredfish)

    What model engine & when was the overheat?
    How many hour on it when it was scanned?

    Happens All The Time To SeaTow If Your In The Mud Or Sand. You Should Have Got A Chk Engine Light and the motor should have Went Into Slow When The EMM Overheated.

    The DI engines have a watercooled fuel pump that can clog with sand or mud. It is easy to clear out, if you know how. If it happened a while ago in hours then the system may have cleared it's self. The fuel pump is in the path of the cooling water for the EMM.

    The New ETECs have a different redesigned type of inner cooling core so it should not happen on a ETEC.

    I would not be concerned if it happend a while ago in hours.

    The dealership needs to pull the gearcase and check the water pump,especially if it is a tunnel hull. Ask them to check the bulletin that may apply here, then call BRP. This may or may not be warranty, really up tp BRP. There is a bulletin on the inline 2 for the water pump. Too much air in the system will overheat the emm, the service bulletin addresses this issue.
