I've just bought a Merc. outboard 50 HP 4-stroke to fix of a friend. He says it overheats at high spead and that it was a factory problem caused by corrotion at the joint between the engine and shaft (at the big gasket). In the shaft this should result in exhaust being forsed into the cooling water. The story also tells, that the corroded part was exchanged for free by the factory if claimed before an now expired date. Can anybody recognise any of this story?? or give me an advise - the motor should start and run fine at lower work load.
