[C36IA] Engine Temp

[Chuck Monsees]

I have the three inch heat exchanger, and it's been cleaned.  I thought it may be an old line somewhere colapsed.  Maybe the one going to or away from the water heater. 

I was hoping someone had already dealt with this issue and had some really simple fix.

  Do you have a 2" or 3" heat exchanger?  Older boats (I'm not sure if yours is one) came with a 2" heat exchanger.  It was undersized.  Assuming no other problems you could still overheat with it.  I switched to a 3" and have had no further problems.

    I know this has been discussed in the past, and I would like some ideas as to what I need to do.

    My engine runs at 200 to 210 at 1800 - 2000 rpms.  It will overheat if I attempt 2200 rpms.

    I have cleaned the heat exchanger, put a new fresh water pump on the engine, and a new impeller in the raw water pump.  Any ideas of what to do next?

    Thanks
