I had my engine over heat this weekend and found 3 blades to the impeller in the impeller housing. I replaced the impeller and things seem to be fine.
I am wondering where I should look for the 3 blades that were not in the housing with the broken impeller. I pull the thermostat cover off and they we not there. I pull the coolant hose off the feed side of the pump thinking they might be in the elbow but, no dice.
I do not have a fresh water cooling system this is a fresh water boat. Is there a screen some other place on the motor, post impeller feed side, that they may have lodged?
