This is going to be a long post but I need some help.
Here is what I have done:
From my previous post my 150 Pro V tlrp was and still is overheating when I advance the throttle over 4300 rpm's.
I replaced both thermostats, took out and cleaned the pressure control valve, installed new impeller ,housing and gaskets.
Went to the lake and over heat indicater and horn came on. Motor went to idle rpm.
Came home took the thermostats out, took off the water intake screens, ran water through the thermostat housing from the hose and it ran out from the inlet. Put the hose on the water muffs over the removed intake screen and started up motor and both heads flowed good water from the thermostat housings. Next step I removed the water pressure control valve and cover and started up motor and good water flow comming from that area. Shut it down and ran water into the hose that is connected to the w/c/v or poppit and good flow of water comming out of the water intake area.
My neighbor who is a mechanic with Fed Ex brought his ohm meter home and he checked my over heat sensers and there is no resistance. (I assume that these sensers make contact when the motor over heats allowing current to go to the computor.) When not hot they stay open.
I am waiting for my new poppit valve kit to come in from boats .net.
The old one which I removed was clean and looked good to me but I am still going to replace it with the new type. "O" ring nice and smooth.
I don't know what else to do. Water is flowing every where like its suppose to do.
