We purchased our Catalina 30 with the Atomic 4 engine a few months ago. Recently, after about 1-2 hours she shut down gently. WE can get her to start back up sometimes. She is a raw water cooled and also has a fresh water cooling system as well. The water hoses are very hot to the touch.We've replaced the electric fuel pump (today) as well as the raw water pump. We are still experiencing problems with her running hot. It appears that some steam is coming out of water hose leading to the radiator. When we first bought her, we had the carborator rebuilt as well as the starter solenoid, new starter, etc.
recently, a mechanic came down to look at it and charged us $200 to change our fuel filter and "clear" a clog out of our fuel vent.
Should we replace the thermostat? Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
