Hi there... I have a 1993 225 johnson looper v6... I just bought this motor a month and half ago and installed a week ago... Motor was rebuilt and has 50 hrs .... The starbourd side is over heating and i have changed out the Head gasket .. 2 thermosts.. heat sensor.. water pump is new .. Checked hose blow off valve joining 2 thermosts and alls working... Flushed power head with hose for 15 mins ... Motor has lots of presure and temps are running hot.. Port side is running normal operating temp... If any OMC Runners on here have any ideas what else i could check for id appreciate it... Thanks

Hi Patherman,

I'm not sure if anyone here will know or not. Probably? Anyway, on Facebook there are 2 groups that definitely have a ton of knowledge and can probably help:
Strictly OMC

Evinrude and Johnson Outboard Power

Glad you got it going. That was an odd problem to diagnose - for sure. Kudos to those that helped figure that one out. Good luck!

its great when someone just knows what is wrong straight away.
you can be pulling your hair out due to not having a clue, especially after tracing everything you know that could cause the problem.
But when a good guru tells you then it just seems so simple.
This is wheethe internet and forums really do come into play, in the old days of NO internet, problems could go on for months, and even cause people to scrap a perfectly good engine .

glad you got it going good now, and don't forget to buy that fella a pint if or when you see him.

also great advice on who to get intouch with !!
