steam coming out of upper exhaust port
by: Anonymous

I have found my motor steaming condition. After removing the power head I had found that the water pump feed pipe to the power head was restricted by the damaged grommet at the top end of the water pump supply tube. After the repair I ran the motor for no less than 45 minutes without any over heating or steams coming out of the upper exhaust port.
