Hey guys, the water coming out of my Black Max seems extremely hot, new impeller was just installed this season and is pumping a good stream, but no water is coming out of the top exhaust ports. Some one said to check the poppet valve but I don't know where it is located. Can any one advise me of the location of that poppet valve on an older 150 V6 1980 model? and why no water is coming out of upper exhaust ports? Please, thanks
