Default Mercruiser 170 cooling problem...

Yeah, someone fired it up without the muffs. If not you, who? Did you
take possession of the boat and tow it off directly after the run-up at
the seller's place? Or later?

Did anyone run the engine without the water supply? It only takes a few

Not since I saw it running fine before I bought it. This was the first
time I ran it, and the earmuffs were proving plenty of water. Any
other ideas?
