My motor pees good and the tell tale is luke-warm when idling.

After a cruise, the pee stream is steaming hot. I can't put my hand under it. The block is pretty hot, too.

I also noticed that after the run the exhaust relief had a lot of smoke coming out of it. But after a couple of seconds, it goes back to normal.

The motor doesn't run inconsistently or anything. It runs great.

Is this normal for a late 90s Merc 25 2 stroke?

Keep in mind I just had a complete water pump job done...housing and all
