>> If you have a heat exchanger, that could be getting clogged. Open the end/s and look at the tubes. Sea water flows through these cooling the coolant. Over time they plug up and need to be cleaned. I use a long drill bit and doubled up 0.040 safety wire, then a bore brush.

>> Subject: Stus-List Overheating as high RPM only We did a run last weekend to a local harbor for the weekend. Windwas fluky and it was a short trip so we were motoring. Alera has aYanmar 3HM35 with around 700 original hours and was running fine at ourusual cruising RPM of 26-2800 on the tach. The hot alarm went offand I let her cool down and then ran at a lower ROM (1800 or so) and nomore alarms. When I got to our destination, I cleaned out the rawwater trap as it was pretty crapped up. On the way back the alarmwent off again but this time all I had to do was throttle back to around2200 and it was fine. Much less steam/smoke that on the wayout.
