Hello,

 

My Catalina has been overheating.  Universal Diesel 5424.

I removed the thermostat........it was corroded and wrapped with debris.

I removed and cleaned the internal water pump.  Also lot of debris.

Put hose in engine.  Water didn't flow but eventually it did.  More debris.

now when I run the engine it is cool until I put on the radiator cap..........then it gets too hot and loses water.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Patrick
