The engine runs great after just being rebuilt. Recently though it
would run hot while running on plane. I then noticed that it was not
peeing when on plane. The impeller has 25 hours on it. Owned the
boat and engine for 8 years and it never had this problem before and
the engine and boat were sold together new. The first time I remember
it happening was just after I had gone through a weeded area. Maybe
something clogging somewhere? Any ideas on flushing it out? Thanks.

Pull it out and see if the impeller is still good. And you can check for
blockage at the same time.
