Well i finally took the boat to the lake and didnt have much luck. The water pressure in gear with stats open was 2.5 psi. Running i saw 15-18 and as little as 7 depending on trim. I think i need to use a smaller relief hose. The temp gauge would climb to the overheat point like always except for idle. I notice it seems to take a long time maybe even 10 sec for the pump to prime. Guess im going to pull the pump out and take a look. And maybe replace it with a stick of TNT. (I might be a little frustrated)
