1999 7.4L Overheating

[Nates78ski]

I've got a 32' Regal that has no water running out of the starboard exhaust port. I pulled the water pump off the back of the engine and opened it up to make sure everything was good and it looks perfectly normal inside.

Any ideas what could be going on here?

Ayuh,..... Next likely point would be the starboard Riser,.... Pull it off, 'n see if it's plugged,...

Do I take it you have a vee drive and the front of your engine is facing the rear (stern)?
If this is the case then that is the circulating water pump not the seawater pump. Only reason I'm thinking of it is because you said the back of the engine

Yes, sorry, they are v drives. Where is the seawater pump on one of these?

Facing the stern of your boat, which makes the front of the engine facing that direction. The pump will be found on the bottom right hand side. It looks something like this.



You should also have a fuel pump mounted on it. The fuel line will go to the carb. There will also be a hose going from the strainer to the pump, then another hose going from it
