My son has a 2000 Four Winns with a 5.7L V8 Volvo Penta (with the dual props) and it over heats when there is a large group of people on the boat and under throttle. The first thing I would check is the waterpump impeller. I read somewhere that that Volvo Penta doesn't have one in the outdrive (as my OMC or Old Merc did) - If that is the case - where is it and can a boat owner with mechanical ability check it? Are there any other suggestions as to what could be causing this problem? He bought it used earlier this year - it runs great and he has done nothing to it.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Does the motor still has the traditional water pump Yes. Circulation pump... on the front like a car does? If so - there are two on the front ? Yes. And a raw water pump with a rubber impeller. Off to the side or below. Rob |
