[dsteinmann]

I Was out for my breakin on my Gp1200 Was going good for about 90min then I sucked in some Silt/Mud and Now its over heating. The Exhaust Water Lock Melted (the Allunium cylinder) the stryofoam. Tried to flush it out on the hose then tried again and sucked up more and now the front pisser isnt working the rooster tail is fine . Where is the clog?

Water flows through the engine fine and the big hose on top of the exhaust.

There is supposed to be water coming out of the exhause right?

try some compressed air in the pisser and you should feel it comming out the water intake.. (red circle)

if you have a blockage then you can go and start taking each hose off the front and back of the head at the top and blow compressed air through them tll you dislodge the blockage or pinpoint where it is maybe?

hope that helps

mark.

*think some gp1200's have the intake on the oppisite side some times.. *dont get it mixed up with the bilge tho (the metal pipe that you can see in the pic thats sticking out. the water intake point is flush

clog could be in the water jackets for the exhaust or this hose:

Yep, Cutlass is prob right. That same hose on mine was stopped up. As he said prob good idea to clean the whole thing
