I've been battling this overheating issue for seasons.....possibly ever since I got this SE106 in 2005. Basically everything has been replaced on my raw(salt)-water cooled 5.7, including the long block, itself.
I have a clear vinyl hose loop connected in-line between the hose from the transom assy, and the power steering cooler. Whenever I'm in gear, and going more than 1200rpm, lots of bubbles appear in the water from the drive. These bubbles are not there when in Neutral, even if revving engine up to 3000+ rpm's.
My mechanic just replaced impeller & upper housing, the entire "water pocket" assy on the upper half of drive, and the impeller pump base. I still get aeration.
Is there any suggestions?
Could this aeration somehow be from exhaust gases entering into the water stream? Could the drive have some internal casting flaw or crack???
