Hello all,
I've noticed the last few weeks my port engine temp has been creeping up when at 3400 RPMs. Normally it's steady around 160 degrees. 2 weeks ago it was 165 and this past weekend it got to 168. When I go back to idle speed it drops back to 160.
Impellers were changed last year. Water pressure gauge readings are the same of both engines. Sea strainer is clear.
Could this be a symptom of a clogged heat exchanger?
Thanks in advance for your guidance.
