[QUOTE="Gator McClusky, post: 285729, member: 9986"] Pulled the power head, carbs rebuilt, backed into the river. She aint running hotter on the port side no more. Found a plastic plug which looks like the kind they use during painting process at factory. Didnt see it on the engine but it was the only thing laying around on the concrete and the floor was clean when we started. Looks like it was never running hot on the port side (160*f), just a lot hotter than the strbd side (121*f). We took it to the river before pulling the head as well. The alarm was the VRO alarm. The hose was disconnected but the alarm wasnt. It was sneezing, skipping and cutting out. It wasnt idleing well and when you ran it hard in gear it wasnt firing on all Thats when we decided to pull the head and rebuild carbs. Be back in a few [/QUOTE]
