Hello all , should the upper cover get warm while running on garden hose at 1500 in the thru-prop .I thinking it may be the exhaust temp causing this heat but not sure. Is this normal to feel any heat on the 97 upper bravo one cover. Jeff

Jeff mine gets warm on the hose in 15-20 with no exhaust going through, it has about 20 hours on it now and I have done two changes of Merc syn. Even with no load the oil gets up in temp just from the light friction of all the goodies spinning around in there.
