Changed the complete water pump (housing etc.) went to the lake and ran the boat(1991 Skeeter 18-5). Motor ran fine. Observed the water pump pressure gauge and it read 15 to 20 PSI. Is this a good press. reading ? Outside temp was 83 degrees water temp at lake 74 degrees. Also in the winter my press. gauge will show a higher press than in the summer months.
I ussualy run about 4000 rpm's after on plain. No need to get there in a hurry.
Can this gauge be off a little ?. I just thought that it would be reading above 20 t0 25 psi at this rpm.
Thanks, Ray
