So you may recall the main reason for my trip down to the boat this time was to fix the engine.
Makes sense, right? I mean, with an engine losing power and a temperature warning light going on and off, it's probably best not to motor anywhere, including even leaving the marina.
So what's the first thing we do? We get our friend Jim in the water to change zincs and clean the hull.
But there's a method to the madness, because one theory Jim and I came up with for the temperature warning is that the raw water through-hull intake might be clogged.
I, uh, looked at the through-hull.
The cover looks clean, so I don't know what's going on.
Could be.
Like I said, I, I would replace it regardless.
It's been quite a while since you stepped in.
Yes, it is.
And would you believe it, the impeller has a grand total of three rubber blades left out of six.
So perhaps we've isolated the temperature part of the engine problems, maybe.
